About Me
- Janice Badger Nelson
- After living in Boston, Massachusetts for a quarter of a century; my husband, daughter and I packed it all up and moved to Park City, Utah, to start our life anew. I have left my hospice nurse position in Boston, a job I adored. I am now stepping back and reflecting on all I have learned from so many wonderful people that I am honored to have cared for. Their deaths have taught me so much about life. I am forever grateful to them and their families.
