[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]male here and i recently went threw this with my mother and the hospital gave me the choice of bringing mother home or a hospice care center.i chose the center.its a tough phasr in life and im still grieving in my own way of not having my mother alive ,best wishes & prayers to you op.[/quote] I'm one of the PPs that is leary about in home hospice. My family member ended up being moved to a hospice center due to uncontrolled pain, and it was far better -- a nurse was available at all times to deal with pain and agitation. In the end, we were pushing the dilaudid button every 10 minutes. You essentially need round the clock care -- fortunately we had family members that were able to work in shifts. I am so sorry you are dealing with this.[/quote]
