The nurse comforts in the dark, since the power is off again in this sweltering hospital.
Simple Personal Items
Ian J. McCoog, EdD
Assistant Professor
Your stuffed animal
A large milkshake, your favorite special treat
Your favorite book
A giant Hershey bar
Your favorite albums
A family picture album
Your dog (embodiment as he isn’t allowed in the
hospital)
A stone from the lake where we took that fishing
trip
Your pajamas and our favorite blanket
You taught me that death is part of life
You prepared me for the end of yours
I am ready to make your death comfortable
I don’t know what I will do when you are gone.
