Very nice video and I really liked the way you shared the importance of touch during the last stages of touch, that you are embracing someones life, sharing energy, and the way the clients body has a history and a legacy. Thank you

Thank you for all the work you do that was a very inspiring video! I am considering taking geriatric massage for my CEUs. The song was beautiful!

I'm about to volunteer offering massage to hospice patients. This video helps quite a bit.

Cindy, You are an angel on earth. I have been practicing massage therapy for well over 30 years and have been a hospice massage therapist for 7. Your presentation was gracious and spot on. Wish you lived closer.

[@diamondreese2161]

She truly is a Angel; I agree.

Great video. I do hospice massage and love presenting. I always get a kick out of the questions people ask.

Awe. I went and visited a friend in hospice and she was in a great deal of pain. She asked me to massage her back. I asked if I was allowed to and the underling said she was told not to. The nurse said I could. I did do it, but it was so comforting to her. I may go to school to do that.

And you have a beautiful singing voice. I have been moved to tears.

Funny you published this 4yrs ago on my birthday. And now you have inspired me. I was a nurse for twenty years and now I am a massage therapist. When my father was dying I wanted very much to massage him, I was afraid. And I was still in school. When is was nearer the end I massaged his and arms and scalp. I think it gave him so peace and you knew that I loved him. That said I am hoping to find some CEU classes so I can do work with my local hospital. Do you have recommendations?
