Metro Detroit hospice helps track down special gift for dying father to give to his son
Seasons Hospice in Metro Detroit went above and beyond the call of duty to grant a young fatherโs wish. Scott LaPointe is a 42-year-old father with Lou Gehrigโs disease, or amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. Heโs in home hospice care because his body is failing him, but he wonโt fail his 11-year-old son, Alex. She mentioned her search to LaPointeโs music therapist with Seasons Hospice and she managed to track down a copy. Seasons Hospice Foundation, which grants wish fulfillment, had a link with the publisher and a week later, therapist Jennifer Fromius handed LaPointe what he wanted to leave his son.
