Thank you for the inspiring stories of other people who gave up on cancer treatments. I hope that my husband can get stronger and live the rest of his life feeling better. Yes, we have discussed his passing. He wants cremated and wants his best friend to spread his ashes at their camp. As for me, no, I haven't discussed it with him. If I ever get any extra money, I want to talk to an attorney about my will. It is complicated as my mom also lives on my property. My brothers would be getting a third of her mobile home, which I don't think it would amount to much as trailers depreciate. It is not on a basement. My mom is 92 years old and you are right no one is promised tomorrow. It could be me or any member of my family. But enough about that right now. There are many changes that I need to make in my life to better my health, but my frame of mind just can't think about that right now. One thing at a time is how I roll. But thanks for your encouraging words. You said you have had lung cancer for 14 years. It is in remission? You are a very strong person and I am glad that you can still have live your life with quality. God bless you.

I have wondered when a person is ready for hospice. He is involved with palliative care but they only seem to be dealing out meds at this point. When do you know when to involve hospice? Or do the doctors suggest it?
