i had to leave my dog in tx and came to ca. he was very lonely. we are sort of joined at the hip. after 6 wks he is doing better but dang i am lonely for him.

my stepmom has about 3 wks to live, and my dad is recovering from triple bypass. she is in hospice at home. my dad is home and has a 2nd surgery he needs later. we all get along great but it's still so hard.

i have a lot of concerns about hospice. the latest crisis is an infection around the g-tube. they only said to use otc topical triple antibiotic. doesn't seem like enough.
