Today I admitted a former nursing instructor of mine to my hospice company.
Title. I went to a pretty hoity-toity care facility today to admit a former nursing instructor of mine. It's been more than a decade since I had last seen her let alone thought about her. She is practically unrecognizable at this point. She was always very gentle, patient and kind towards us.
The thing that is really fucking with me is that she's essentially all alone. No kids, spouse passed away decades ago, no relatives. Just a friend who visits on occasion. She is at least well taken care of here but I've been thinking about her all day today.
