[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Medicare will pay to have a wound care RN come to the house to care for the bedsores
Several times a week.

Call her primary care physician and have him order that.[/quote]

That's good advice but OP isn't interested in actual solutions to improve her mother's quality of care nor the life she has left. After all, she is "secretly" wishing that her mother's bedsores will become infected and she will die.

OP just wants pity, sympathy and accolades for herself.

Why secretly? That wouldn't be an unusual way to let someone die on hospice.[/quote]

Because someone needs to be declared terminal BY A PROFESSIONAL diagnosis to be on hospice.

OP has simply taken it upon herself to decide that since she is tired and disgusted with caring for her mother, it's time for her to die. Even if that includes ignoring agonizing, infected bedsores WITHOUT appropriate pain meds.

If OP's mother dies in her "care" and without hospice or a doctor's direct oversight, I hope authorities do an autopsy and determine her mother was neglected. Then they can press criminal charges on OP and she can try and wiggle her way out of that.
