127. They did the same thing for my mother, kept her comfortable, pain free and hospice was wonderful,
came to the house, spent lots of quality time with all of us, until the cancer metastasized and went to her brain. A few weeks later, she passed. I wasn't making anywhere near the income I make today, so I always felt guilty, that if she were alive today, I could have saved her by putting her on my insurance as she didn't have any and suffered horribly for it. If I'd had a little more time, I could have gotten her the insurance she needed, for the tests that might have detected the lump early, before the lymph nodes were affected and the spread of the cancer began. She was a good lady, died at 54 and it nearly killed me as well. MedicaAdmin, I have nothing but respect for you as human being and everything you do to ease the suffering of those in your care. Thank you.
Lou
