When I happened upon Nurse Hadley's TikTok, I was both drawn to and encouraged by her stories from the frontline of hospice care. Evidently I'm not alone; more than 750,000 followers agree.

Hadley went viral earlier this year after sending her children to stay with family so she and her husband, a doctor of physical therapy, could serve patients at the start of COVID.

Since then, she's answered questions about end-of-life care, reaffirmed her own belief in what happens after death, and reminded followers to "eat the cake" - something a young, terminal patient urged her to do. Life, she says, is too short not to take the trips and enjoy dessert.

You can find Hadley at lifeofhadley.com or @nursehadley on social media. While you're there, follow @butnotallatonce to join the conversation!

If you like what you heard, would you leave us a five-star review? It would be a perfect Christmas gift for the gal who laughs at her own jokes in your earbuds all year long.

Thanks for being here, y'all! I'd love to hear from you at @ButNotAllAtOnce on social media or via ButNotAllAtOnce.com.
