Does any of this sound familiar? If so, you’ve come to the right place! We have created this website to help the seriously ill and their families learn how to live as comfortably as they can within the context of their disease. Whether you need tips on handling the medical and physical aspects of care, are concerned about emotional or spiritual issues, or simply want to know about important legal and financial decisions, our educational website is here to help you 24/7. We even have a listing of local, state, and national programs that offer services and support.
It’s true. Caring for a seriously ill family member can be one of the most difficult experiences in a family’s history together. Yet, it can also be one of a family’s most fulfilling, meaningful, and intimate experiences. A lot of love, and even laughter, can be shared as the patient and family learn to live fully with whatever time they have left. It’s a balancing act, to be sure. But with education and support, you can enhance the quality of life for everyone.
If you have questions, please do not hesitate to call us at (843) 347-5500. We would be honored to help. |

What is an
Advance Directive?
This is a document that tells people your wishes regarding life support should you be in a situation where you are unable to speak for yourself. It spares your family the heartbreak of having to guess what you would want. One part, the Health Care Power of Attorney, says who you want to be the decision-maker. The other part, the Living Will, helps your decision-maker by describing the kinds of decisions you would make regarding things like tube feeding, CPR, etc. |
