Letting Go: A Hospice Journey. A 1996 HBO Documentary

This documentary deals with death and dying Here is another documentary that I watched many years ago. I enjoyed this film even though it deals with pretty tough subject matter. It's touching and also interesting to see how people come to terms with end of life decisions and care. Luckily, I found a copy to upload on my channel so others can check it out as well. It was published back in 1996, that's 27 years ago for HBO. This hospice documentary is raw and emotionally graphic. "Letting Go: A Hospice Journey," takes an in depth look into 3 separate individuals living out their final days of life. An 8-year-old boy named Michael Merseal Jr. is on the family couch in his father's Missoula, Mont., home, dying of brain disease. His mother, who abandoned her children and hasn't seen Michael in seven months, is trying to coordinate a visit with her dying son. In addition to Michael, there is a 46-year-old Queens, N.Y., woman named Anna Turner, who has lung cancer; and a 62-year-old firefighter from Northern California named Ralph Armstrong, afflicted with a brain tumor. A fourth dying person, an old fellow called Charlie, appears briefly, speaking of a near-death experience that he had. For anyone under the impression that "hospice" refers to just to a place where they give you nice painkillers and keep the flowers fresh, this film will open your eyes to how hospice can look for different people. Every death story is, a unique story. "Letting Go: A Hospice Journey" shows how hospice care serves as a sort of family therapy. #hospicecare #endoflife #hospice
