[quote:Noslot:MV80MTEzNDc5Xzc0NjQ0MjQ1XzY0Q0MzOTE4] [quote:lsufanatic:MV80MTEzNDc5Xzc0NjQzODk3X0FGMkM5QjE2] Thank you so much for starting this thread OP. I am currently in my 4th year of fighting Stage IV rectal cancer with tumors in the liver and possibly lungs based on my last CT scan. I am really interested in following this thread to see kinda what I can expect once I get to the hospice stage. Not quite there yet. Thanks Again OP, Geaux Tigers [/quote] When I first understood where everything was headed I read, watched YT vids and talked to anyone who would listen to me about what to expect, what might happen and anything else that crossed my mind. For me the scary part is the not knowing. When the doc looked me in the eye and said its time I finally had something I could work with. No more uncertainty. It was finally all out in the open and we could begin this journey honestly and lovingly. I sure don't know what your experiences are or will be, but I wish you peace, strength and courage on your journey. [/quote]
Original Message
I am a in-home hospice patient and this is an experiment. I’m seeking a conversation with someone currently admitted into any kind of hospice program as we live out this journey.
Disclaimer
The only thing I’m an expert about is my experience and frankly the same goes for everyone else.
Guidelines
I will use whatever power I have in my role as the benevolent dictator of this thread. There will be no arguments about God, medical politics, ethics or anything else that annoys me. This is the part of being a benevolent dictator that is appealing!
Before you Post
This thread isn’t about your Aunt Mary’s or Gramps experiences or to vent your opinions about hospice, death, dying, politics of dying, medical monsters or anything else. Its about your personal experience as a real time, real world, real person hospice patient. Having said this others are welcome to ask appropriate questions, but any answer I may provide is just my personal opinion based upon my experience. This is GLP and I know a certain chaos must prevail to keep the energy here alive.
