I was also going to suggest hospice. My mother's doctor has definitely taken the time to explain things to us and one of the things he really wants us to consider is hospice because they work directly with the doctor to make sure the patient has the right pain medication for his situation. Thankfully we're not at that point yet but we are looking into it, first I'm trying to get my mom on the CAP-DA program where she just came on the waiting list. This helps in providing home assistance and once I have them, I'll get hospice involved for when I do need them.
