Kyla provided in-home hospice care to my husband, diagnosed with pancreatic cancer. Kyla provided information in a manner that was gentle, understandable, complete, and accepting.  Her words reflected a desire to understand what he was going through and the number of ways she and Hospice could help, which lowered his stress level.

She anticipated supplies, posted her contact number on the fridge, and was so helpful to him and our family. He was very frightened of having pain and the possibility of Nursing Home placement. She explained the various methods available and the continuity of her availability to help him wherever he was located. It was 5 weeks between diagnosis and death, and she provided the continuity of care needed for a patient in a life-ending situation. Her knowledge and desire to understand his fears enabled her to comfort him, which helped him so much.
