[quote=Anonymous]There are no good choices. I went through this with my mom. We let her make her own choices. She chose in-home hospice. By the time she entered hospice she had figured out she couldn’t climb the stairs to her room so she did agree to a hospital bed in the living room. What I didn’t understand is that hospice is someone coming in a few minutes, a few times a week, eventually ramping up to every day. I thought she’d have care. My elderly dad wanted to do it all without hiring care so we waited too long to bring in an agency. I don’t know what people do who can’t afford aides. [/quote]
