Hospices will be built next year

“We envision the facility as a place of shelter, grace and a sacred place embracing patient and family, preserving dignity at the end of life”

After years of providing hospice care for terminally ill patients through home health services, Baptist and Methodist health systems will build Shelby County's first two residential hospices next year. via Commercial Appeal

[Francesco Sinibaldi]

At the Mercy.

In the resonant
cypress situated,
like a trembling
leaf, in the breath
of a novel and
innocent morning,
a sparrow alights
and always, in the
sun’s redness, a
delicate flake
discovers a dream.
