In this conversation with my friend Haley, she has come to share the story of her father's death. There's so much beauty in this story and there's so much sacredness in how Haley tells the final weeks and days and hours and moments of her father's life.
You’ll hear us discuss:
- Who Haley's father was
- How his cancer diagnosis effected his life
- How being with her dad as he took his last breath was a positive experience for Haley
- How Haley and her family brought in the power of music at the time
- How Haley navigated her dads death with kids
- Haley's Dad's Memorial
- How the experience has changed Haley forever
HALEY SAYS
“And I guess I used the term visions because I think, the medical profession would, probably term them as hallucinations, but I don't like to use that term because it's not how it felt to witness. It felt like he was in this place between two worlds, neither here on earth nor there, wherever he was going. He was sitting at this place on the edge of death, essentially. And he was able to see and feel things that are there that our brains, don't allow us to see."
MEET HALEY
Haley is a mother who is open, inquisitive and passionate. She has three beautiful children and each of their births has been a journey of discovery, travelling beyond the realms of what she thought was possible and emerging with a new sense of self. Her births have shaped her, inspired her and taught her to understand the world from a new perspective.
HALEY SAYS
"And it was this real contrast of something so profound that had just occurred in this room in his home, yet simultaneously something so normal. As I sat in that room peacefully next to dad and looked outside his window, the world went on oblivious to this transformation that occurred in this home. "
