That sounds very distressing. Would he be willing to go to an inpatient hospice facility?

No. He made it very clear to both the nurse and I that he wants to die at home. The nearest hospice home is in Pittsburgh area and is about an hour away. And that type of traffic scares me. I am a two lane country road girl. But I will do my best to honor his wishes and keep him at home as long as I can.
