We all go through life, and at some point, we must face the fact that we won’t be here forever. I’m not afraid of dying; I see it as a natural and beautiful part of life. However, what worries me is getting old and not being able to take care of myself. The idea of relying on a hospice nurse does make me a little scared
The idea of depending on others for everything, not being able to do simple tasks on my own, and forgetting the names of my loved ones is something I find frightening. It’s not the kind of life I would want. This fear connects with the story of Maria, a music teacher who was cared for by a hospice nurse in 2016.
**Relying on a Hospice Nurse Can Be Daunting**
Maria spent her final days in a care facility, knowing her time was limited. She had been a music teacher her whole life and found comfort in music. Fortunately, one of her former students, Joshua Woodard, worked at the care home in Austinburg, Ohio.
Joshua and Maria had known each other since he was just nine years old when she taught him music. Before she passed away, Maria had a simple but meaningful wish: to hear the song “How Great Thou Art.” Wanting to make her last days special, Joshua got the song lyrics on his phone and sang it for her.
Marti Adkins Redmond, reflecting on this special connection, expressed her gratitude for hospice workers like Joshua. She emphasized the unique bond between Joshua, who had once been Maria’s student in voice and piano, and Maria, who became his caregiver in her final days.
Even though Maria is no longer with us, her memory continues to shine through this touching moment. The relationship between teacher and student, now caregiver, highlights the incredible kindness and compassion that hospice workers, especially people like Joshua Woodard, offer in their roles. Joshua’s actions show how much of a positive impact one person can have on another’s last moments, bringing comfort and dignity to the human experience.
Here’s What Kristin Juszczyk Wrote On Instagram After That
