During and after the loss of several family members and friends, with whom she shared in the care of, she experienced a calling to hospice nursing. At the time, she had been a nurse for nearly thirty years, with the goal always being the promotion of health and life. But it was only after becoming a hospice nurse that she recognized her calling in the field of death and dying, where she learned how to promote a good dying process and provide care and comfort to the loved ones.

As an employed hospice nurse however, Myra often ended her shift when the loved ones still felt her presence was needed. She longed for the freedom and flexibility that would allow her to be of service whenever and for however long it required. Myra felt so passionate about this calling that she enrolled in the Suzanne B. O’Brien End of Life Doula training course and became certified. She now offers her services at Compassionate Crossings in Sacramento.
