Home hospice. It's a good thing, but it aint easy. Trying to go about activities of daily living while your loved one is dying in the other room is grindingly painful - and guilt laden. But the old saying "life goes on". And it does. In spite of everything. Thanks to everyone one here on Poal keeping me laughing and reminding me we're all going through it, whatever "it" may be. Cheers.

My mom was 94, and died a year ago before I got her into home hospice. A year later, a shed a tear every single day over one memory or another. It took us 65 years to resolve some serious issues. The last five years were the greatest gift of my life. I wish it could have been like that the entire lifetime.
