Sometimes what we can all use is a hug. And what child doesn’t have a security blanket or a comfort object? The diagnosis of a life-threatening illness is a frightening prospect at any age, not least of all for children, adolescents and their loved ones. That’s where Alive Monarchs, the pediatric care program of Alive Hospice, comes in: To be your family’s security blanket. To be present as a source of comfort and reassurance during a difficult time. Like a hug.

Alive Hospice has a long tradition of serving patients of all ages who face life-threatening illnesses. Alive Monarchs is one of the few palliative and hospice care provider for perinatal and pediatric patients in the nation. The beautiful monarch butterfly inspired the name of Alive Hospice’s pediatric program. Butterflies, which are closely associated with hospice care, signify hope, the beauty of life and the celebration of those we love.
