Death Support

You don’t have to do everything alone. I’m here to listen, help and be there for you as you face death.

  • Care for the Dying Person

    The things that we need in our final days are not always the same as what we need at other times of our life. I am happy to meet with a dying person and their support team to help coordinate things such as:

    Comfort care measures; legacy projects; creating a bedside vigil schedule; final messages or tasks that the dying person wants to do; end-of-life preparation

  • Care for the Caregiver

    Caregiving is hard work even when it’s an act of love. You also deserve to receive care during this life-changing time. I enjoy serving caregivers through tasks focused on their wellness such as:

    Setting up a meal or chore train to give you more time to rest or be with your person; crafting realistic and pleasurable self-care routines; helping process grief and final conversations

  • Care for the Community

    Often when someone is dying, people want to show they care but either don’t know how or they are worried that they’ll “over-step” in some way. Inviting extended members of a community to help at the end-of-life can be an immense comfort for the dying person, caregivers and those they consider family. Collaborating with the dying person and caregivers, I can help expand the circle of care through things like:

    Setting up a phone tree for when the death has occurred; source help from the community for things like child or pet care; tap people to run needed errands; create ways for folx in your life to share memories, encouragements and love
