Does anyone know how much money is left? And who is paying her extra bills from hospice.

What nobody has pointed out is that as soon as she goes a day or two and starts to look distressed, the usual course of action from hospice is to sedate her with morphine or tranquilizers. I have seen hospice do this with terminal cancer patients. It hastens death by suppressing respiration and usually the person goes from a respiratory ailment. It happens very very quickly. It looks like relief of suffering but it is really euthanasia. And relatives do not complain. they do not want to see the people they care about suffer.

Well, last time through with this kind of treatment she stuck in there for what, 8 days, and when the feeding resumed she came roaring back with nothing more than a cursory stabilization. I'm sure hino hopes she'll go quickly, but Terri's will may surprise us.
