Too late for me, but I have a few thoughts.

2. Best wishes to you, thank you for writing this up.

Too often people don't want hospice involved because they see it as a death sentence, as giving up, rather than having another resource to help people live better. They call during the last few days, which helps give us families permission to let go but misses a lot they could've find for the dying person. I've known people on the other end, being on hospice for a couple yrs because they are fragile but are and to stay healthy and happy with hospice's help.

We try so much to fix people, it can be really difficult to let them go, or let them fail. Finding the balance is easier in retrospect. 1 yr, 4 months since dad died, there is a lot we could have done different, but did the best we could at the time.

Best wishes to you and thank you for sharing.
