I don’t know what his treatment plan is. But, palliative care doesn’t mean ‘hospice’. I was under palliative care after my stem cell transplant because I needed extra support to control my pain.
Perhaps that’s what is going on? I recall the dr and nurse explaining it to me because they saw my expression when they introduced themselves. They said many people confuse the purpose of palliative care.
I believe when one is only on palliative care, then they are terminal. Rush is still being treating.

My son had a stem cell transplant last year. He was on palliative care for a few months before that due to pain.
He is terminal now but doing experimental treatments.
Most people are on palliative care at the end but being on it does not necessarily mean you are in the last days.
