[quote=Anonymous]We’ve done hospice at home a few times and it IS horrible but also went fine overall and was what both people strongly wanted. We did hire nursing care beyond what hospice provided. It also REALLY helps imo if you have a family member who is a nurse or a doctor, even if they are not there in person. Several siblings took significant leave. I agree that if you have fewer resources (people and money, but especially people) you may want to do it elsewhere. It also just depends on how much suffering you can absorb/tolerate. Make sure you investigate any long term care policies that are left. It seems odd to me now that I could become so attached to a building at the moment buildings no longer matter, but I’m sure I’ll get it when I get there. [/quote]
