The Hospice 2013 Chili-Fest and Hike for Hospice was a great success!! Over 12 varieties of Chili
were available and wonderful homemade cookies for dessert!! The brave ones walked the
beautiful grounds of the River’s Edge Golf Club and the sun came out!!!
See you all next year!!!
A word from your Chair …..
This past year has been a successful one for Hospice North Hastings. With help
from our businesses, All Occasion Event Rentals & The North of 7 Film Fest we
have continued to grow and fund new programs.
A new storage facility to house medical equipment and to protect the equipment
from the elements was built with the support of a Foundation Grant,
TIM-BR MART & Steve Huzarik and his crew. Our new R & R Day Program
which runs each Thursday morning provides respite for caregivers and persons
facing a life changing condition. This program is offered at no charge to anyone
registered with the Community Care Access Centre and provides yoga, therapeutic
touch, massage therapy, reiki, and lunch.
All of our growth is a result of the dedication of our Board of Directors, Staff &
Volunteers and with the help of businesses and individuals in this area. We
continue to run all of our programs…including our home visiting program and the
residential hospice without any government funding.
The new electronic signs in Bancroft and Maynooth have garnered positive
feedback from the community. We use the signs to generate income and to keep
everyone informed of any special events or public Announcements/emergency
notification.
I would like to thank Kelly Soanes for her many years of volunteering with
Hospice and for her tenure as Chairman of the Board of Directors. I have big shoes
to fill.
Wishing you all a Merry Christmas!!
Betty

Heather’s Highlights ….
“..birth is a beginning….death is a destination...and life is a journey”
Rabbi Alvin Fine
The phone rings …. and there is another referral to Hospice. Another individual in our community and their family
are facing heartache and a difficult journey ahead. We at Hospice, would not be human if we didn’t think of our own
families at this time and count our blessings. We breath deeply and grab hold a little tighter to those we love.
But we also realize….that this is coming to us all….at some point we all must say farewell to those we love.
What we hope for is a quiet passing, a soft farewell, a gentle sleep for
those that we love.
We are so proud to be able to offer the many Hospice programs to you our “community”…to provide you with options
for care. Whether it is support for a caregiver as he/she’s energy flags, medical equipment for your home or caring for
someone in the last days of their life at our residential hospice….
it is a privilege to be of service.
On behalf of our entire team of staff and volunteers at Hospice North Hastings,
“thank you” for entrusting us with the care of your loved ones.
Heather
VOLUNTEER PROFILE: Mike Henrickson
How long have you been a
Volunteer?
I have been a volunteer with Hospice
North Hastings since May of 2011.
mini lights that are returned from their
rental business, to helping set up for the
Hospice Gala. There is always something
that needs to be done!!
Why did you select the Hospice
to volunteer?
I had heard many wonderful things about
the work that Hospice was doing in our
community and I wanted to become part of
that. I had recently cared for my wife at
home when she was ill and I realized how
helpful it could be to have support
available..
Any special moments in your time as a
volunteer that you would like to share?
I really enjoy going into the homes….often
I can stay with someone while their spouse
takes a bit of time for themselves and goes
to our R&R Day Program!!
What has being a volunteer meant to
you?
I have really enjoyed my time with
Hospice. There are not a lot of male
volunteers and some of our male clients
really enjoy talking about hunting or fishing with another guy for a change. I have
been involved in many different aspects of
Hospice care...everything from visiting
clients in their own homes, to checking the
A word from the Coordinator:
Mike is part of our Hospice family!!!
Even when he is just walking into Hospice
he is picking up the recycle boxes, when
we are busy with the All Occasion Event
Rentals he is packing orders up and lord
knows….saving our mini lights!!!
Virginia and I enjoy his time at the office
and his Words of Wisdom!!
Thank you Mike – you are a treasure!!
Hospice North Hastings would like to thank Kelly Soanes, our past Chairperson and Dawn Denneboom a past
Director for their years of service to Hospice and to our community!!
Hospice would like to welcome our new Board Members…..Ron Emond, Karen Bonokoski and Monica
Walker.

Things We Can Do to Help Ourselves
Through the Holidays
Plan ahead!
You set the tone for the holidays.
Simplify your life as much as possible.
You decide what kind of celebration is best for you.
Set realistic limits for yourself.
State your needs clearly to others.
Feel free to express your emotions.
Allow others to grieve differently than you do. No two people will grieve alike.
Recognize the importance of your feelings and then deal honestly with them.
Learn all you can about the grief process.
Cry when you need to cry.
Expect the best.

THOUGHTS FOR THE DAY!!
Because You Are
HOW TO GET THAT SECOND WIND!
Whether you’re ninety years old, or
seventeen years old, or forty-five
yours of age, you have the exact
same time available to you. You
have this moment.
You have the opportunity to live
with all the richness you can
imagine. You have the chance to
start something new, to
experience joy, and to give love.
No one has more, and no one has
less. This moment is now here for
all to live,
especially including you.
Any pain or sadness you may feel is
only near the surface. Go deeper,
and experience the magnificent
beauty that lives at the heart of you.
From the timeless perspective of
that beauty and goodness, worry is
just plain silly. As urgent and
compelling as the issues of the
moment may seem to be, the value
that your life encompasses is so
very much more.
You cannot lose, because you are.
Right now, fully live all the beauty
and wonder of the
miracle that is you.
Ralph Marston

Feeling run-down? You’ll turn up the
energy in five minutes if you……
REFUEL. Snack on fiber-rich munchies
such as dried apricots, celery sticks, an
apple or a few pistachio nuts. Benefit: The
fibre helps control the release of glucose
( a sugar) into your bloodstream and may
prevent energy dips.
BREATHE DEEPLY. Every 1-2 hours,
spend 5 minutes inhaling and exhaling
deeply. It will help you feel calmer and
more mentally focused, with
renewed energy.
TAKE A VISUAL VACATION. Close
your eyes and mentally escape by
imagining a peaceful scene on an island,
in a meadow or by the ocean. “Seeing”
yourself relaxed can be rejuvenating.
SNAP OUT OF IT. Splash cold water on
your face or pop a breath mint...mint
flavours are stimulating.
TAKE A “GOOD NEWS”
INVENTORY.
At the end of the day, write down all of the
good things that happened. You’ll be
surprised at how much went right. Plus,
you’ll set yourself up for a
good night’s sleep…
