I’ve been a bit insane over the last couple of weeks, working to get everything sorted out for her. The biggest obstical has been the hospice industry, which so far, has been one of the ugliest scams I’ve encountered in my life.
The basic philosophy seems to be promise everything, do nothing, and send medicare the full bill, after the actual customer has become so frustrated with the lack of service they seek help elsewhere.
Anyway, she has her pain meds finally, after two weeks of bullshit and lies from three different hospice companies.
I’ll write more about this later, but for now, she is resting peacefully, now that her pain meds have finally arrived. No thanks to one, two, or three, hospice – each of their pharmacies couldn’t make a delivery, finally the place where my mom is staying stepped in and got it done.
Anyway, she is mostly unconscious at this point, but it looks like she is going to make it to Christmas. Ho. Ho. Ho.
