Elizabeth was a source of rootedness and comfort for me in a very lonely and dark time when my mother was sick in hospice with stage 4 cancer. I never experienced losing someone so close to me before so I had no idea what an end-of-life doula was. My pregnancy doula recommended I seek one out. I was shocked to learn of such a profession.

I immediately googled Asian American end of Life doulas because I wanted someone who understood my Chinese culture and the family dynamics that I come from. She was the first person that I found and it was truly a blessing and very serendipitous that she offered her services to me in such a short amount of time.

Each time we talked over zoom, she gave me space to grieve since I didn't have much space to grieve as a caretaker. I was also pregnant for the first time and so it was a very intense season of life hormonally, physically, emotionally and spiritually, but when I look back on it, Elizabeth was definitely someone who helped hold my hand through it all.

I am forever grateful.
