About.com Guide Shares Her Hospice Story

From Angela Morrow, RN, About.com GuideNovember 16, 2009

Trisha Torrey, About.com Guide to Patient Empowerment, knows all to well the importance of being a patient advocate.  She herself was misdiagnosed with a serious illness for which the treatment could have killed her.  She pursued a second opinion and was thankfully given good news.  In her blog today, she shares another personal story with readers - the story of her mother's death.

Trisha's mother suffered with Alzheimer's Disease for many years and died peacefully last week under the care of hospice.  Please visit Trisha's blog to read her touching personal story.
