Help those less fortunate
I recently had my father pass away after 2 years struggling with Mesotheloma
We had a large number of the most caring people in Colorado. If you can this Christmas give to you local Hospice so they can support people that need the support but can’t pay for it.
Here is where I am donating too.
Welcome to The Denver Hospice and our circles of care. As the region’s leading hospice since 1978, we provide an unprecedented level of expert, comprehensive and personalized care. From programs to promote comfort and manage pain, to counseling and support for families and friends, nowhere else will you find such a continuous circle of the most compassionate group of experts dedicated to one greater purpose – you.
Give to your local Hospice as they are all the best people I have ever known…
Thanks too all

Michael, I am very sorry to hear of the loss of your dad. I lost mine in 1994 and i know how much it can hurt. My prayers will be with you this Christmas.
God bless you
Dennis

Excellent…I’m working on a post right now about Hospice and how they do help so many people, families, patients…I volunteer for a semi local hospice and the fact that people will give of their time and skills for others is astonishing, in todays world. Personal charity is always a humbling thing to do…but the costs are still high. Medications and the hoopla surrounding them are not cheap; government reimbursement doesn’t cover expenses. Most hospices tend to keep a very low amount of overhead- most are very safe charities to donate to.
Hospice services are a bit more than they intended to be and there is some federal oversight investigations going on as I type…some hospices take advantage of people who are not dying and reap in profits on it…but they are dar and few between. How do you know if a service provider is on the up and up? If they ask for payment, thats how. 97% of honest providers will not charge. These folks depend upon the donations of people and not government.
So donate. Now. Some day most of us will have the need.
