Title: What to Say When Someone is Dying
Topic: End Of Life Care
Discussed by Samira Beckwith
with Hope HealthCare Services
Part 1 of 5
Perhaps you have just learned that one of your friends, business associates,
or relatives is in the hospital battling a life-threatening illness and the
prospect of their recovery is very poor. You feel as if you should reach out to
them and their family, but you aren’t sure what to say.
Samira Beckwith, CEO of Hope HealthCare Services, says this: “Because we are not
taught how to deal with people who are near the end of life, quite often we’re
afraid that we’ll say or do the wrong thing, so we do nothing at all.” Samira
says there are many simple things you can do to bring comfort or brighten the
day of someone with a very serious or terminal illness.

Is sending a note or card enough
to express your thoughts and prayers for someone who is dying? That depends on
the type of relationship you have with the ill person, according to Samira
Beckwith. Other ways to show you care are sending meals, flowers, or just simply
lending a listening ear.

patient, Samira Beckwith knows what its like to be alone in a hospital bed,
forgotten by friends and co-workers. People were afraid to come

they saw her.

Many people who are
fighting serious illness and are nearing the end of their life often make a
“bucket list” or request strange things of their family and friends.
What if someone make an off-the-wall request that is impossible to
fulfill? What should you do?

It’s ok to be afraid, but don’t let that fear keep you from reaching out to a
loved one or friend in their most desperate time of need.
