Shelly Bradley
was thrust into the caretaker
role after her mom was diagnosed with terminal cancer.
Yet it wasn't until her mom proclaimed on her deathbed
that Shelly would have been a wonderful nurse that she
realized end-of-life care was her true calling.
"I like taking care of people," says Shelly, today a
popular hospice caregiver who often works with patients
within the Jewish Hospice and Chaplaincy Network.
"The most important thing a person needs at the end of
life is kindness." Our Jewish patients benefit from her
kindness.
