Last year, I swam across the Sea of Galilee in Israel. This year, I'm doing one closer to home - not only quite literally, but also in spirit. So close, in fact, it is hard to bare my soul for this short intro. Suffice to say, my mom worked for Hospice for many years, until one day she found herself as a patient instead. They do good work. I am honored to be a part of it in this small way.
