Mid 90's matriarch soon to leave us.

Nice MC trip to Liberal Massachusetts to chat with mom's health care staff. Hospice nurses were great. With home hospice care, and all our help, she can avoid her last dread---passing in the hospital or other sterile place. Home now and still alert. Surrounded by things she loves and family. No heroic hospital resussitive torture. Palliative care only. Grateful.

God bless you and your family!
Thanks, all. Headed down there again today. Sibs all home, except youngest sis, who arrives soon from the UK. New sore prevention beds are wonderful.

WOW, just WOW.!
JimNastics. Possibly because of the belief that they are a symbol that someone in the Afterlife is trying to reach you after death to say they're Ok.
This is a hard time I'm sure but at least she is surrounded by her loved and not in a hospital. I've always heard Hospice is great.
