Dear Boydette,

So sorry to hear that. I wish you peace during this difficult time.

(((Boydette)))
hugs from a newbie...
my Dad has home hospice and it was extremely hard to do, but they can
make him more comfortable (when he agrees to take a pain shot!)
It has been a source of comfort to us knowing his physical ailments
are being cared for.
Best wishes,
donnah

My experience with hospice is that you will find them caring & helpful
beyond belief. For me, signing our son up was the hardest part; hospice
helped to make everything easier after that.

Thinking of you---

Always.
