As my mother was dying, hospice was a godsend. But, we only had them for two days. Hospice is not supposed to be a months-long ordeal!

Same for me. Last 2 days for both my mother and father-in-law. I suppose here will always be scammers in every industry who ruin it for the others. For me hospice was a godsend and I understand its value now. They also followed up with me to see how I and my wife were coping with their deaths and sent us handwritten notes. I got the distinct impression that the people that they chose for their jobs were mature, sincere, and above average in the compassion department. How can anyone speak ill of that? I guess progressive bean counters without a heart who are young and haven’t experienced the grip of death yet would be my guess. They will pay for the cold hearts later if they don’t see the light. Not everything is about money and being entertained in this life.
