The Twelve Days of Hospice

On the twelfth day of Hospice, those nice folks sent to me:

12 cans of Ensure,

11 large diapers,

10 disposable underpads,

9 friendly hugs,

8 vacuumed rooms,

7 heartfelt prayers,

6 doctors visits,

5 baths a week.

4 volunteers,

3 social workers,

2 MS Contin,

and a nurse available 24 hours a day.
