When Hospice Isn't What it Should Be

When Hospice Isn't What it Should Be

Not all hospice experiences are the same… and that’s a conversation we have to start having. In this episode of I’m Dyin’ Over Here, Ashton sits down with Walter Miranda to talk about what happens when hospice isn’t what it should be. They dive into the hard truths: • What good hospice care is supposed to look like • Where things can go wrong — communication, support, staffing, symptom control • The reality of families feeling unheard or left behind • And the moments that make nurses say… we can do better Because here’s the truth — you have a choice. If something doesn’t feel right, if your loved one’s needs aren’t being met, if you feel like you’re fighting to be heard… you are not stuck. You have the right to ask questions. You have the right to advocate. You have the right to switch hospice providers. This episode is about empowerment, awareness, and raising the standard of care — because every patient and every family deserves better. 🎧 Watch now & join the conversation. 📞 If you or someone you love needs guidance, we’re here to help: 210-608-0081 Abundant Hospice — where care feels like it should.

The Death No Family Should Face Alone

No family should have to face death alone. In this episode, Tish Hagee shares what it really looks like when hospice isn’t involved—unmanaged pain, panic, confusion, and families left calling 911 because they simply don’t know what to do. This is the side of death no one prepares you for… but it doesn’t have to be this way. Hospice brings comfort, guidance, and peace when it matters most. 🎙️ Watch now and learn how we can change the way families experience end-of-life. 📞 Abundant Hospice | 210-608-0081

The Nurse Isn’t the Enemy

When someone you love is dying, fear looks for somewhere to land. And too often… it lands on the nurse. 💔 In this episode, we talk about: • Why families sometimes blame staff when the body is shutting down • The tension between hoping for a “fix” and facing reality • Being accused of “giving up” — or worse • How nurses walk families through nature’s course with empathy and grace This isn’t about failure. It’s about compassion in the hardest moments. It’s about choosing comfort, dignity, and honesty when there are no easy answers. 🎧 Listen now and hear the side of hospice that rarely gets told. #AbundantHospice #HospiceCare #EndOfLifeSupport #NursesAreHeroes #CompassionInCare #IDOHpodcast #MomentsThatMatter

Carrying Stories Home

The shift may end, but the stories don’t always stay behind. In this episode, Ashton, Angela ,and Jack open up about the words, moments, and images that follow nurses home after work—and how carrying those stories can impact personal life, relationships, and mental health. They talk honestly about how they cope: small rituals, humor that only teammates understand, leaning on one another, and knowing when therapy and support are necessary. And they share the paradox so many in hospice know well—holding grief, while also feeling deep gratitude for being invited into some of life’s most sacred moments. If you’ve ever wondered what caregivers carry long after the shift ends, this conversation is for you. 📞 If you or someone you love could benefit from compassionate, supportive hospice care, contact Abundant Hospice at 210-608-0081.

When Families Want More Then You Can Give

In this episode of I’m Dying Over Here, Ashton and Cindy open up about the emotional reality of hospice work — when families need constant presence, unwavering patience, and someone to hold every piece of their grief… even when that load is too heavy for one person to carry. They talk about setting loving boundaries, protecting your heart, and helping families build a wider circle of support — all while staying rooted in compassion. Because caring deeply doesn’t mean you have to carry it all alone. 💛 If your family needs support or has questions about hospice care, we’re here to walk beside you.
