On October 12, 2024, the global community observes World Hospice and Palliative Care Day, a unified day of action to celebrate support and promote the provision of appropriate care for people living and dying with health-related suffering
Over the past year, 12-year-old Samia’s life has undergone a significant change. In the capital’s Korail slum, the child was born with cerebral palsy, a group of neurological disorders that appear in infancy or early childhood and permanently affect body movement and muscle coordination.
The haunting concern over the high cost of dying is as real as death itself
Our loved ones, either in their final days or suffering from incurable diseases like cancer, kidney or liver failure, dementia, stroke, and other terminal ones, need hospice and palliative care.
Don’t forget about the terminally ill
Sixty-year-old Asiya Begum, a resident of the capital’s Korail slum, lives in a tiny makeshift room made of tin, slightly larger than the size of a grave, with no ventilation or fan. At first glance, it might look like she has been buried alive.
