She also did outpatient oncology nursing, home health/hospice, became a hospice chaplain, and later a hospice volunteer. She now sees patients on a volunteer basis. She began writing a feature column, Beyond Statistics, for a local newspaper when her husband told her one evening after her shift at work, Please don't tell me about it. Write it down. The first article was published in 1986. These stories are the patients' stories and their education to Becki as she visited them about the transitions we make in life and in death.
