Dear Friends

Every year, thousands of people are hospitalized far from home.

Whether it's for planned treatment or an unexpected circumstance, loved ones flock to the bedsides of their beloved patients for undetermined amounts of time, to cities they've never been to, without the comforts of home, to advocate and care for those who are dear to them. These journeys can be lonely, tiring. There can be feelings of helplessness and hopelessness. Of wanting to quit and walk away...

...to just go home...and sleep...

...to just pull weeds for awhile.

These journeys, at times, can be isolating, frustrating and discouraging. And one more thing. These journeys are ALWAYS unpredictable.

Enter Until Journey's End.

When we hear about these families, we send care packages filled with practical, comforting, fun items. We mail follow-up letters of encouragement. We pray for each family's specific needs. We connect them to needed resources in their area. We encourage our families to tell us what else they need and do our best to provide it. We long to support those who have been supporting. We do this for weeks, we do this for months. We're prepared to meet a family's needs for years. However long it takes. Until they return home.
