Our dad, Yuan Chuan Chen, passed away on the night of January 6th, 2021, due to COVID-19. This is what it was like to be his primary caregiver in his final days.

I’m back with another post about what to do when your parent is hospitalized, and today I’m going to talk about communication.

I have a confession to make. Like many others, I’ve picked up a quarantine hobby.
