Into that Good Night

.
As we boomers get older we're experiencing something new. The death of a good friend or older family member. After 5 years I still turn around and wonder why my Dad died. What was he thinking? He was so healthy till almost the end.

I have been so impressed and grateful for the wonderful folks at Hospice. Both in administering a great facility here in Austin and their home health care as well.

I received a card from them with the inevitable plea for money. What caught my eye was the illustration and verse.

I thought you might like to read it as well. And if you're looking for a way to thank them for the wonderful care your loved one received now's the time.

From Hospice Austin:

Every bird, in its winter,

needs a gentle branch

to help launch its final flight.

Merry Christmas little birds.
