Celebrating the Life of the Terminally Ill

We know where our end is, where our lives lead. But even the most prepared have doubts when faced with their unavoidable death, especially the terminally ill and elderly. A sad thing providers of palliative services in California see is the grieving and mourning of family and friends. We understand it is normal to be sorrowful for someone living on this earth. But we should also remember the good times and keep creating happy memories.

Experts and personnel working in the hospice and palliative care industry believe that we should celebrate the lives and the good things hospice care and terminally ill patients have done throughout their lives. One way to do it is by holding a living funeral. Don’t laugh. You may be familiar with this beautiful concept from Mitch Albom’s book, Tuesdays with Morrie.

A living funeral is a Japanese event where loved ones hold a funeral ceremony while the person is alive. During this living funeral, loved ones will share their most significant memory with the patient. They will also share what they appreciate with the person and the patient’s impact on their life.

Life is worth celebrating, even if you are in the clasp of death. And we here at Bonum Hospice Services believe you deserve to leave this world with a smile and a heart filled with joy. And each person deserves that.

Let us help you celebrate their lives and make the rest of them comfortable by availing of the services of our hospice care in Burbank, California.
