As hospice nurses, Alison Milne and Michael Schooley drive hundreds of miles a day, across two regions of Southern Maine, visiting patients at different stages of the dying process. Both say there’s a reason people come to work in hospice – you have to be called to it. As they transgress the boundaries between the living and the dying – entering the most intimate of human worlds – they have to find a way to make your own boundaries less permeable.
