In 2014, over one and a half million Americans with life-limiting illnesses, and their families, were served by hospice. Although a relatively new concept, the word “hospice” dates back to medieval times when it referred to a place of shelter and rest for weary or ill travelers on a long journey. In that same spirit, we offer this conversation about hospice.
One hundred and forty-eight years ago–with the Civil War just ended–the first Memorial Day was observed in the national cemetery after which Arlington is named. Graves were adorned with flowers. Flags were displayed. Speeches praising valor, country and sacrifice were made. And while much has changed in the interim, this remains the same: we still salute valor, stand as our nation’s flag is raised…and bury our war dead. Which begs the question: for all we’ve learned and for all the advances we’ve made, what have we missed, what lessons await our understanding?
