[quote=Anonymous]Great advice given, OP. Been down this road before and I suggest reaching out to your father's physician if he has one. The physician might be able to provide a medical referral or at least steer you in the right direction. Your father may need to stop taking some medications as they are prolonging his life. I had to get hospice involved with my dad's care (dementia); my mother was insisting that my father take his blood pressure meds, have dental cleanings, etc. when it was inappropriate. Establish medical proxy, figure out if you want a DNR, too. [/quote]
