My experience with hospice has been positive. They help terminal patients and their families with the death process in a very caring way. Their purpose isn't to help prolong someone's life and has never been advertised as such.

This was underscored to me when my father-in-law was in the end stages of cancer. The hospice workers came to the house to talk to the family. We were considering using an alternative treatment to try to prolong his life. The hospice workers said they would not accept him in their care if there were attempts to prolong his life.

All readers of this BLOG should take the time to reread the initial post. It was a factual and excellent description of the "Hospice Program" This idiot in Florida does not represent the Hospice Program in any way shape or manner and in fact should be thrown off the board for his grandstanding and false information he has been putting out. Please remember that one rotten apple in a barrel does not mean the whole barrel is rotten. This Jerk and I use the term very seldom but he really fits it well, should be shown to be the phony he is.
