For a lot of people that word will primarily be associated with memories of their relatives or loved ones dying.


I appreciate your saying that. I am definitely one of these people. For me, the word "hospice" only brings to mind the most difficult time of my life - taking care of my mom as she was dying from cancer.

I realize that there is a sense of the word that's related to "vagrant". But when I do a Google search, every single result on the first page has to do with end of life care. It's just stunning that someone could possibly think this is a good idea.


Makes sense. We will consider changing it. Thank you.


Rather than merely considering it, just do it. It's an early-stage project and now is the easiest time to do it. And, no, I wouldn't go with painfulcancerdeath.io.
