Lawyer is/was Hospice Board Member. Lawyer promises Man that Wife will die at the Hospice...

I remember when hospice care was big news. Seemed like a great idea. Now I wonder if the movement was hijacked by lawyers and medical providers to engineer embezzlement scams, or if it was built from the ground up for that purpose. They always promised death with dignity; The nurses and aids who were diposed didn't tell a story that indicated dignity was a big concern, at least by management.

"Awright, Gram, into the cart!"

"But I'm feeling better!

"Y'not fooling anyone...you'll soon be dead. Off to hospice w'you!"

"Bring me my purse."

"No, no: y'won't be needing that."

Kind of like Planned Parenthood offers "Family Planning", Hospice offers "Death with Dignity"...offers dignity; guarantees death.

If there are hospice providers who are truly dedicated to their cause, they better push Jeb to dig out and imprison the wiesels who have set up the scam in FL. Including the judge.

That quote sounds Pythonish (Monty style).
