The Hospice Season: Fillable 60-Day Journal for Family Caregivers
Someone you love is in hospice.
You are losing them and sitting beside them at the same time.
The Hospice Season is a fillable 60-day guided journal for the family caregiver living through hospice, anticipatory grief, and the final goodbye. Each day offers one short reading, one honest prompt, and a place to type or write what may be too hard to say aloud.
This is an instant digital download. Nothing physical will be mailed.
WHAT YOU RECEIVE
• One fillable 6 x 9 inch PDF journal
• 98 thoughtfully designed pages
• 60 fillable journal response fields
• Clickable bookmarks for easier navigation
• A printable version within the same PDF
• Immediate access after purchase
WHAT IS INSIDE
• 60 daily journal entries across six emotional movements
• Prompts about waiting, guilt, unfinished words, exhaustion, anger, relief, and love
• Short entries for days when a full page feels like too much
• A special transition page if the goodbye comes before Day 60
• Space to name what is happening without being told how you should feel
HOW TO USE YOUR JOURNAL
To type directly into the fillable fields, open the PDF with Adobe Acrobat Reader or another PDF application that supports fillable forms.
You may also write on the pages with a stylus using Goodnotes, Notability, Kindle Scribe, reMarkable, Supernote, or another annotation application.
Prefer paper? Print the entire journal or only the pages you need. When printing on US Letter or A4 paper, select Fit in your printer settings.
IMPORTANT
This journal is not a hospice manual, medical tracker, therapy, or professional care. It is a personal journal for the family caregiver.
I helped care for my mother-in-law through the final three months of her life and created this journal while my own mother was in hospice. I write as a daughter and caregiver, not as a medical expert.
PERSONAL-USE LICENSE
