On Saturday my dad decided no more hospital. I called hospice from Madison Monday morning. Monday afternoon we had an intake interview, 2-3 hours later the nurse and meds arrived and by 6 pm we had an extra long hospital bed. I am an RN for 28 years and have never seen things in health care happen that fast! I had a couple rough nights with Dad until I accepted and was taught that this night behavior was terminal restlessness, which I had never heard of. Our nurse gently instructed me so that dad’s end of life could be more comfortable. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
