[quote=Anonymous]I’ve found hospice to be evil. They have a timeline and their recommendations appear related to conform to how they are paid by the government. Be careful because they will have the right to give morphine, which is basically a legal way to kill someone who is dying. I learned this the hard way. Hospice wanted us to stop all prescription medicine which we refused to do because doing so would cause discomfort to the dying person. Hospice seems to want to give morphine only and speed things up. They don’t really perform any useful function. We were forced to use hospice when elderly parent stopped eating. Elderly parent started eating again. Hospice overdosed the parent. Marvin was given etc. It was a mess and upsetting. [/quote]
