Friends of Hospice in Oswego County is a volunteer organization that provides non-medical support for hospice patients in Oswego County and the Camp Waves of Hope bereavement summer camp experience for children who have lost a loved one, Twiss said. In addition, we just introduced our Life Longings program, a new service for terminally ill residents offering support by making comfort improvements, helping with milestone celebrations, or fulfilling ‘bucket list’ requests.
The donated knitted items will be given to participants in both the Camp Waves and Life Longings programs, Twiss said.
