Currently using complimentary offices in the Waterloo Inn, the Hospice is looking for a permanent home. Although they have applied for grants and have received some corporate funding, some exciting funding events are in the works. I hope some service orgaâ€" mization takes the Hospice under its wing and acts as a major sponâ€" sor. Hospice is a worthwhile undertaking and, sad to say, one we will all use.

Back in Octoâ€" ber 1991, inspired by a motivational speech, Lucille started to orgaâ€" nize The Hospice of Waterloo Region. Having lived in Waterloo since 1978, Lucille had a lot of contacts. impressed by her enthusiasm and humor. Now Lucille has taken on a major job. She has started the Hosâ€" pice of Waterloo Region. I asked Lucille to tell me about the Hospice. She began with the history of the hospice in Europe as a shelter and how it evolved as homes for the terminally ill. . § Lucille‘s Hospice will be a community based one. That means that local volunteers will go to the homes of people facing life threatenâ€" ing illnesses and lend a hand. Whether that‘s providing a break for the full time caregiver, teaching about pain control or other commuâ€" nity services, Hospice will be there. Let‘s face it. We‘re all getting older. Some of us are lucky to have family close by. Others, because of job transfers and lifestyle choices, are living in a community without our families. Divorces have resulted in many oneâ€"parent families. Despite friends, many of us are alone when illness strikes. I can relate to that so well. Several years ago, I was very ill and when I was released from the hospital, I had to go home alone. I couldn‘t take care of myself and I had to impose on a friend. It would have been nice to have Hospice around to give my friend a thank goodness Lucille is ready to stand up and say let‘s do it. I figured there had to be some background to spur Lucille on to pursue such a difficult road. She confessed that when her brotherâ€" in-hwdied,dxewusoin:ptusedwiflxï¬ngqompassionandski}lof She studied nursing before settling down to raise a family and so Meet Lucille Mitchell.
