This online library is designed to help the seriously ill and their families learn to live as comfortably as possible. It offers practical tips and information about:
- Handling the medical and physical aspects of care, such as pain, nutrition, and talking with doctors.
- Coping with emotional and spiritual issues, such as grief, hope and family conflict.
- Making important decisions.
Caring for a relative with a serious illness can be one of the saddest and most difficult experiences. It can also be one of a family’s most fulfilling, meaningful, and intimate experiences. A lot of love, and even laughter, can be shared as you all learn to live fully now while preparing for tomorrow.
Getting help is a great way to make sure you have enough energy to offer the love and support that only a family member can give. If you have questions, please do not hesitate to call us at 1-800-897-3052, toll-free. Or you can email us at info@iowacityhospice.org. We’d be honored to help!
