She just came back from the hospital about a week ago and she continues to decline. She doesn't really want to eat or drink, and says everything hurts. She is still on an antibiotic. I just don't know what else to do. I think I am making the right choice, but I am feeling scared and unsure.
Something to consider now is whether or not you would want hospice at home or in a facility. At home, you'll have a lot of heavy responsibility, and hospice isn't going to be able to help 24/7.
For what is she taking antibiotics?
And was there some reason she didn't go to rehab directly from the hospital?
I think you did the right thing making the call. The worst that can happen is they say " not yet".
Her PC Dr had suggested it about a year ago, but I was scared. Her visiting nurse also suggested it, but again I was scared.
