JobliO-
Perhaps you already know, but Palliative care and Hospice care are not always identical, especially if you rely on insurance, (private or government) and are not self funded.
Palliative care includes any care that is not aimed at curing disease. I have an NET stage 4 cancer originating in my small intestine. It has spread to liver, bones, etc. I am told " it is not curable, but it is treatable. " My treatment goal is to arrest the growth of the cancer and reduce/eliminate symptoms. People here on Mayo connect have lived with this type of cancer for 5, 10 & even 20 years. But technically much of our treatments are Palliative.
Hospice care insurance is a very limited subset of Medicaid. which eliminates many treatment options.
I am linking an article that both defends Hospice care from inflammatory criticism and yet also points out the financial limitations on treatment options that may actually cause more discomfort for the patient.
I hope this is helpful as you make decisions about your own care.
Praying your remaining years are filled with peace, joy and family.
