Thank you.

I’ve seen the reactions and have to agree. I vote for Trump doing it.

There is nothing worse (or potentially more evil) than a miserable old man who knows he’s about to be Judged by God.

I have stood along side 3 people I’ve cared about in their final days. It is a “place” betwen here and where they are going you can only know by being with them.

I am not kidding. I heard her say it and she was serious. A lady lady corrected her.

Something just came to mind after I read your reply:

When Carter dies, it is going to be an interesting funeral. Trump vs Obama, Bush and Clinton. Maybe there will be no State Funeral.

It’s usually for end of life situations when the doctors determine that medication/treatment will NOT keep a patient surviving much longer.

So they make your last remaining days as comfortable as possible by giving you morphine to relieve pain. Rarely do you see hospice patients live more than a few months.

Hospice care is a fancy way of saying assisted suicide.

Thanks for your reply. Hospice care is a good way to go.

One of my brothers died of pancreatic cancer and only lived 3 months after diagnosis. Hospice was wonderful for him.

He had just retired from the Air Force and hadn’t even received his first pension check.

Sadly, when you’re to the point of hospice care, you’re knocking on God’s doorstep. I wish him well but from the looks of it, Mr. Carter will be in God’s hands by this time next week.

FYI. Hospice care does not mean assisted suicide.

My dear dad had a glioblastoma multiforme stage 4. There was nothing that could be done to save him and he was miserable; unable to speak or walk or eat.

He was a marathon runner at 77. In three months he was skeletal.

When the seizures started due to the brain tumor, we called in hospice.

They gave him comfort during his last week. He didn’t have seizures anymore that clearly terrified him in that time. It was awful. It was gut wrenching.

I have no affection for Jimmah, but hospice is not assisted suicide.
