Deep Dive: Being There For a Dying Loved One

It’s incredibly sad and emotionally challenging when someone you care about is terminally ill. They’re dying. You’re not. Yet their illness might cause you tremendous anguish, anxiety and fear. In an effort to avoid the pain associated with death, some people excuse themselves from visiting their dying loved one, saying things like they’d like to remember the person the way they were or that they hate hospitals. If there was ever a moment in time to get out of your own head and put your feelings aside, this is it.Â

More likely than not, someone pointed out the po...
