My ex-father in law is in hospice now. I was the one who had to help explain the process to my ex-mother in law. She was hoping for a recovery but the doctor was telling her that this was a remote option. My son came in during this session and he later took over and helped his grandmother get the paperwork done to move to the Hospice.

My ex-father in law has been in Hospice for almost 2 weeks and is still hanging on. I will be headed up there later this afternoon. We bring food and try to be there for my mother in law. No my ex-mother in law wishes that she started Hospice earlier

The hospice is wonderful and I will be donating to this facility soon.
