Trying to honor all the patients I've cared for over this year by keeping them in my heart and head, going forward in teaching and being. The experience of my patient who died last week was particularly hard. What a privilege to travel with and learn from this role. My team and our community sharing the gifts and weight make it more meaningful. The footing has still shifted though..

Remembering my Mom, Frances Mann Hines, who died just 2 months shy of her 95th birthday in late January.  Missing her presence. Grateful that she was in my life for so long and that hospice care cushioned her and us in her final days of life.

May the road rise up to meet you; may the wind be always at your back.  May the sun shine warm upon your face; the rains fall soft upon your fields and until we meet again, may God hold you in the palm of His hand.

In memory of Kathleen Arata and Martin Chauvin.

I'm pretty sure my mother would have laughed until she peed herself, knowing I got a tattoo of a purple butterfly in her honor. 9 years, and I miss her to this day.

So many losses, in so many forms. We are in this storm together, but we all have different boats. This disaster has left everyone scarred. And tired, oh so tired. May we find our strength and our peace. May we focus on gratitude. May this be over.

Remembering my patient, who I found earlier in the week dancing in the hallway by herself to Mardi Gras celebration music at her ALF, and joined her for a dance. She passed away in her sleep in her lounge chair that evening. Dancing into the sunset...!

I recently learned my mother's only remaining sibling of 12 died in November, no one is left from this generation. So much respect for the lives they lived and endured. This has been a year full of grief, so many lives lost. Looking for inspiration in these days of social isolation, love is paramount. The photo is my youngest granddaughter, Freya, the newest generation

My sweet Nana. I will miss you dearly.

I know many of you have cared for hundreds of patients with COVID. When I think about the importance of palliative care and see photos of you in PPE I am so moved. At the same time, I carry the grief and sadness of nearly 2.5 million deaths worldwide. People I know and never knew. People we want to honor and remember as we heal and help others. - With Gratitude, Steve Smith

2020 is a year I will never forget. I know sounds clique but so true for me. I welcomed my first child on May 25th filled with ups and downs. And very unexpectedly lost my father on August 28, 2020 at the age of 68. Such a growth year personally. Thanks for everyone sharing!

Dad (Armen Palian),
You taught, ate and loved well.

It has been such an honor to care for my patients and around Thanksgiving 2020, I received a beautiful note from a patient's wife that stated, "This Thanksgiving, we are thankful for you."  She shared with me that her husband had passed away in the middle of November and how much she and he had enjoyed their appointments with me.  They always shared photos of their grandchildren at the end of each appointment.  In the "thank you note" Jon's wife shared a photo of Jon reading to his granddaughter just days before he passed.
She will never know the true joy that I got in providing hope and security to them.
I truly cannot imagine doing a different job!  So much fulfillment with palliative care.
