  • HOSPICE THANKS CHURCH FOR DONATION



    Some of the nutritional drinks donated to Big Bend Hospice by Trinity Episcopal Church in  Apalachicola.
     
    Special to The Sun
     
    Big Bend Hospice would like to thank Trinity Episcopal Church, Apalachicola for hosting a successful nutritional drink drive for our patients!
    Their 2023 drive raised over 300 bottles of Nutritional drinks for BBH patients!
    Terminally ill individuals don’t consume food and drink in the same manner they always have; a decrease in appetite and thirst is a natural progression of the body slowing down. That’s why partnerships with places like Trinity Episcopal Church of Apalachicola are so important, their support allows our patients experiencing nausea or difficulty swallowing to continue receiving important nutrients, helping to sustain them through the end of life.
    If you would like to partner with Big Bend Hospice or learn more about how to get involved, please contact Kara Walker at kmwalker@bigbendhospice.org
