The twilight of life

On a cold and dreary winter day in Coeur d’Alene, warmth and love emanated from inside the Hospice of North Idaho’s Hospice House. A man with his family nearby was tended to by a nurse — they watched as he breathed slowly and said nothing, but it was clear they loved him very much. This man’s final days and hours, maybe minutes, were made easier by hospice care.
