Prediabetes is a condition where blood sugar levels are higher than normal, but not high enough to be diagnosed as type 2 diabetes. Diabetes is associated with serious health consequences, including stroke, amputation and blindness. You can have prediabetes without experiencing any symptoms, which is why 80% of people have it without knowing it.

Hospice care is often described by families as a way to make a person’s end-of-life beautiful and peaceful. It allows your loved one to remain at home while managing physical and emotional symptoms and providing support to family and caregivers. The fundamental principle of hospice is that each of us has the right to live each day pain free and in comfort.
