RE: A HOSPICE NURSE’S STORY: Death In a California Town
This is beautiful and sad and uplifting all at the same time. You made me cry and I appreciate that. It is not every day I get a strong enough emotional connection with what I am reading to bring tears to my eyes. Love you man - Cheers - Carl
Thank you @carlgnash. That’s a great compliment. It was difficult for me to write. Like I said, I’ve been wanting to start a book about my year, but everything was too close emotionally. I’ve given it time to simmer on the stove. Laverne is one of many deeply poignant cases I had. Everyday was a new amazing experience and a conversation I never thought I’d have with someone. It’s a dramatic subject and one I’m not used to approaching in my writing. I get bored with my writing if I don’t come across something funny every couple paragraphs. I’m confident I’ll find the funny parts in these stories when I dive into them, they’ll need some comic relief.
