That's all it was at that point, palliative care. I had in-home hospice
care nurses and CNA's from a local caregiver service so I could get some
relief. She was dying and everyone knew it. Tell her she couldn't eat
spinach? I don't think so! She died comfortably, in peace, in her own
home. That's all that matters.
