Just started my husband on Hospice yesterday. He isn’t close to dying yet, although I don’t know for sure; but we need help and they are there in any way we need. He refuses any type of life saving options, i.e. feeding tube, oxegyn, etc. So I get to just watch him die a most unpleasant death. Fortunately Hospice will be there to make him comfortable, and give me support, when the time comes.
