Hospices chronically underfunded, despite the known all-round super benefits by every count.
But you know that!
All best in your much needed #DeathDoula work.

Indeed, & applicable to all of us, children & adults.
In modern culture there is often a "time limit" of acceptable #Grief & it is unduly pathologized.
Learned recently about "multi-dimensional grief" on a wonderful webinar by @oandbinstitute, will post link in next tweet.

- As u age if ur not good company for ur self it's trouble!
- I welcome our unsteadiness, not knowing what will happen – to us, our planet – normalises how I feel,not alone.
- Forgiveness in light of @jennettemccurdy book I'm Glad My Mom Died

What an absolutely lovely, precious @DeathCafe we just had. Never ceases to amaze me how perfect strangers can share so deeply & intimately in the space of a short time. The process is quite magical! We all left feeling enriched, heard, seen & uplifted.
