Comedian Christie Campagna and Clinical Chaplain Marni Martin talk life, death and everything in between.
"Two things need to happen to make you a better human being. The first would be everbody needs to be a waitress or a waiter and the second thing would be to be with somebody who is dying." ~Marni Martin
Are you a Caregiver? Are you caring for a loved one as they prepare to leave this world and enter the next? Are you prepared? This is one of the most difficult challenges one may take on and yet one of the most important.
In this episode Christie shares a bit of her recent experience caring for a loved one as Marni asks tough questions that anyone in this position should be asking themselves.
Are you listening to your loved one?
Are you honoring what THEY need or what YOU want?
Are they depressed or are they experiencing sadness?
Depression is a clinical term...also sadness is a normal response.
Understanding the difference will help determine the level of care.
(This is in no way medical advice, we always reccommend reaching out to someone from your Hospice team for advice.)
Marni sheds light on the physical as well as mental difficulties this has on everyone involved. From physically moving a patient to undetermined timelines and the overwhelming feelig of guilt that often comes with the process. Caregiving can be difficult with a group of loved ones and may create more anxiety and tension when not handled correctly. It is imperative that we be mindful of our energy as the unknown unfolds.
If you are caring for a loved one in hospice remember, be kind to yourself, take it day by day, moment by moment and remember...
IT'S A PROCESS NOT AN EVENT.
Once your loved one has pased ask yourself:
What is healling to you? and Where are you connected to the one you love?
We pray this episode brings you peace in this difficult time. It is ok to feel your feelings. IMPERATIVE in fact! It is always ok to hide as long as you remember... you are on your way to healing.
As always, we love you and remember to GET NAKED AND FEEL YOUR GRIEF!
