Hospice Encounters

This is a podcast to share Encounters and Experiences related to a Loved one's End of Life. An Encounter is defined as an unexpected casual meeting or experience. This is not just about end of life visions by the Hospice patient. This also includes Near death Experiences and Unexplained Coincidences. My goal for his Podcast is to be encouraging and give a platform to share these Encounters.
