Getting ready to turn off all the alarms for my dad's meds bc one part of hospice is we're not gonna fight him to get him to swallow his pills Every Three God-Damnéd Hours anymore
#honestly he commented before that it felt like that was all he did all day and like. yeah same dad.#personal#original#also apparently we have been put on the next step of hospice#if he can't eat he will last 2 weeks if he can it could be up to 6 months#and my thought was “at least 2 weeks should get him through christmas” :')#he hasn't stopped eating altogether btw so it will probably be quite a bit longer than 2 weeks#also the doctor said she'd try to find a way to get him his parkinson's meds w/o swallowing bc#we're not doing any meds that are just to lengthen his life like BP or cholesterol meds. only meds that help his comfort#and the parkinson's meds DO help his comfort bc they let him do smth other than lie there with a blank face#most importantly they let him tell us what he wants#like if he's cold or wants smth to eat or drink or whatever#but we're not gonna push it if he doesn't wanna take the pills
