My Dad died peacefully in his own bed just four weeks ago today; we (and his doc) recognized the inevitable and got him on Home Hospice for his final two weeks....a great service which Medicare provided.
You're right about the lack of desire for nutrition.
Pop was comfortable, relaxing/pain meds were on hand for the caregivers, and we don't regret this route one iota.
Thank God for Medicare.
One day every tear will be wiped away.
