[quote=Anonymous]Having recently had a friend in home hospice talk to your dad and mom about if they want visitors. My friend wanted to be able to say goodbye to a number of key friends, so we got a few of us to coordinate getting in touch with these friends, coordinating them visiting when she had the energy for visits and getting them out to see her or having them call her if they couldn't make it to her. She really appreciated the closure of being able to talk to them. I know you asked for support for your mom, but I think coordinating this type of support will be helpful for her as well so that she has fewer questions/comments to field after your dad passes from the well-meaning calling her to talk. If they've already spoken to her husband especially when she's there, then she will be able to think more about herself rather than focusing on people who didn't get to talk to him before he passed.[/quote]
