AN ACCIDENT? I THINK NOT...

Hospice is a specialty that requires a level of emotional and physical endurance on a daily basis. On any given day, I have patients and families that depend on me and the hospice team to provide a sense of hope.
The truth is, I never thought I'd end up doing hospice. In fact, I first did a clinical rotation in the hospice floor due to staff shortage. I thought it was going to be a one-time thing.
To my surprise, I "fit" in. Hospice wasn't what I thought it was.
It was so much more.
It wasn't an accident I was placed there. It was orchestrated like the sound of a violin playing in a symphony.

The term “hospice” (from the same linguistic root as “hospitality”) can be traced back to medieval times when it referred to a place of shelter and rest for weary or ill travelers on a long journey.

The word "knighT" translates to servant. Their job was to serve Lords and Kings as soldiers, landlords and justice bearers and eventually take on the role of protecting pilgrims that could not protect themselves.

To be a Christian Knight is to devote our Service, Conduct, and Profession to help our brothers and sisters.

Each piece of armor, has a specific significance to our mission.

We are personal. We are ready. We like to be real (2)

SO HERE'S THE DEAL...

My patients have taught me that each one of us has a unique story. All of us at some point or another experiencing moments of joy and moments of sadness. Some days harder than others. Some journeys shorter than others. And yet, we are all going through this bridge, this moment, all of us, with the unquestionable certainty of a future arrival point that dosen't care about age, race, or the amount of luggage we own. "All items discarded upon arrival" it says.

See, being a Knight requires more than just the armor. By itself the armor is of no use. By itself it would be another heavy and oversized piece of luggage.

The armor requires selflessness. It requires us to be an emblem of what Christ did for us.

The truth is I don't own an iron suit. I don't have a sword. And by all accounts I own nothing resembling a knight.

I am only a Knight because it's written in my heart. I simply want to share the shield of hope, that by HIS grace, has shielded me. The greatest gift we can have is to know that we have a Knight. Our Protector. Our Savior.

You are not alone. Your story matters. Your legacy matters. We are here to let you know we can walk the bridge together. Because its not about the arrival point.

It's about the hope and comfort you can have along the way.

This is our mission. This is our calling. It's written in our hearts. And our shield can be yours too.

We are KNIGHTS OF COMFORT
