Yes, I have spoken with them and yes, there are probably some ways to approach this topic without me doing all of "the heavy lifting." We were with a special Hospice program called "Supportive Care for Dementia," which is only offered through Phoenix, AZ Hospice group. It was very helpful, but we were discharged in April. Now, it seems that we may be ready for the next level or "real" Hospice and we are back in our home state of Oregon. I will need to link up with these folks and our doctor will assist in this, as well. Thank you for your thoughts.
