She can't really do things on her own. She has a bad quality of life which is heartbreaking. She has lost most of her mobility. She spends most of day sleeping and is more awake in later part of the day. I care for her with my brother. Don't know if we made a mistake putting her on hospice. Nurse comes once a week now for vitals and we stopped taking our mom to her Dr. Appts. except for foot Dr for now. Sometimes she seems kind of healthy except with her mind. She can't follow along with tv programs. It's hard to have people coming in with Covid. Also have a health aide for shower. I feel sad, stressed, and don't know if right thing to be on hospice. Any thoughts?
Thank you.
