ajlposh 548 Posted November 17, 2023 Well, her husband has ruined the concept of hospice care for me, so who knows how long this will last 2 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

gcreptile 10,987 Posted November 17, 2023 Oh they're just trolling us. Wasn't she already on something that could be called hospice care? Is anything actually changing? 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Old Crem 3,611 Posted November 17, 2023 Normally hospice care means death is fairly imminent but she is likely to be getting the same type of hospice care as her husband so that might not be the case. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

markb4 902 Posted November 18, 2023 I kinda assumed she was in hospice care already since Jimmy was. Guess I was wrong. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I don’t know, the fact that the Carter family feels that they have to make this announcement considering Jimmy has been in hospice care for 9 months, makes me think Rosalynn won’t be here much longer. Also, Rosalynn has dementia, which there’s no type of treatment for. Jimmy doesn’t have dementia (that we know of). Not sure if that makes a difference or not. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sean 6,340 Posted November 18, 2023 I do wonder what definition of hospice they are using.In Jimmy's case it certainly seems the most basic form of having a DNAR with an instruction not to go to hospital if the cause of admission is reversible (I.e a broken bone). 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sean 6,340 Posted November 18, 2023 Seems a massive coincidence that Jimmy has lasted 9 months on hospice alone let alone that his wife has joined him.Makes me highly suspicious this is more of a detailed advanced directive ( no CPR , IV antibiotics , IV fluids , NG feeding , invasive ventilation life sustaining oxygen etc).Basically a keep me home and do nothing remotely radical instruction rather than we need to actively or intensely or even actively palliate them now. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
