An update on the work in progress. I volunteer in hospice, and my current patient loves oil painting, so I got some oil paints of my own and I only paint when I'm with them. It may take longer, but it feels way more rewarding! #hospice #art #oilpainting #sunset #impressionism #painting #nature
Hospice is almost always called too late.
The turning point is a family meeting where the physician confirms the prognosis clearly to everyone, at once.
Without it, families can't let go of intensive intervention, even when the patient already has.

The hospice prayer
God
Our sister rests in your care
Her burdens are lifted
her spirit at peace
Gather her gently in your loving hands
and guide her to the light of your promise
May she find comfort in your eternal embrace
and may those who love her feel your peace.
Amen.

Lewis & Mount embrace on a stage, blue & green background
We've lost two giants of compassionate care, in Canada & internationally - Stephen Lewis (today) & Dr Balfour Mount (last September). This was my shot of them when Lewis spoke at the 2014 Intl. Palliative Care Congress in Montreal. #Canada #Healthcare #AIDS #Hospice

I am officially enrolled in this program

I've been present for the end-of-life care of 7 family members. Four died in hospitals. Two in nursing homes. One, my mother, at 99, died peacefully at home.
The difference was planning. Early, honest, coordinated planning.

OUR FRIEND (2020)
An endearing, true story of coming together while a friend is dying of a terminal illness. Many of us have been there & it still continues.

I’ve learned that the body doesn’t fall apart at the end—it shifts toward comfort. Energy pulls inward, connection changes, and families often feel the shift before they understand it. Clear guidance helps people meet the moment with steadier hearts. #thegoodendingproject #hospice

While LA county with one hospice for every 38 deaths deserves scrutiny. This IS NOT JUST CA problem —What about Harris County (Houston) in Texas. There are 225 hospices -185 (82.2%) do not report ADC or ADC <=5. Only 14 hospices report CAHPS stars ratings - see joanteno.substack.com #hospice

Most people aren’t afraid of dying — they’re afraid of not understanding what’s happening to them.
Fear fills the silence our culture refuses to break.
The Good Ending Project exists to replace that silence with clarity, calm, and truth.

Compassion isn’t a heroic trait. It’s a coordinated practice. High‑functioning teams keep each other from the cliff—not by caring more, but by caring together.
