How are things going with your Mom Janet? I don't know much about hospice but I do know that my Dad was in the hospital for two straight months and medicare never refused to pay. I hope she's doing better. Hugs to you my friend.

Oh my goodness, I was hoping to hear your mom was doing much better. But I agree with all the ladies I think hospice is the way to go.

Sending you lots of XOXO

Thank you all. The reps from Hospice will be here tomorrow morning around 9 or 9:30. I'm really scared and anxious at the same time. I hope Mom is more accepting than she was with the visiting nurse and physical therapist. We'll see.

Mom is not eating well...says her teeth are not as sharp...duh...they are the only pair she's had since she was in her 50's. She also is real bad at pocketing her food in her right cheek, the side that is affected by the stroke. Also, she is now having trouble with lifting her right leg. She continues to go downhill in one way or another. It's starting to get to me more because she cries a lot. She gave me some money tonight and said if she was some place else, she would have to pay and then started to cry a little bit. I know it's not going to be easy for awhile.
