Hospice

Well, I just received a phone call that shouldn't have surprised me, but it actually shook me up and that is that my dad has taken a turn for worse, he is not doing well, has a fever and has lost 40 pounds. I haven't seen him in three weeks and he didn't look gaunt then, and my mom saw him a week ago, and she didn't think he looked gaunt, and we can't believe that he lost 40 pounds in one week since then. The doctor from the nursing home is recommending a hospice, so arrangements for this will take place on Monday. My poor Dad.

I'll keep you posted.
