[quote=Anonymous]OP, saying this all sensitively but is there a DNR order? Is your FIL on meds that are extending his life (blood pressure, statins as examples)? Asking because my recently deceased parent took all of these meds literally until death, that ended up being sudden. No one could find the DNR order and following protocol 911 was called. Terribly upsetting and I was on scene. My parent kept refusing hospice and most especially talking about end of life matters. Get this conversation going now. Decide on hoodie care and what this will look like. Remember that hospice is a caregiving model and not a place so your FIL can enter hospice where he is. And if there’s a DNR order, post it and make copies.[/quote]
