Hello , I had someone who has been advising me through this W/C injury to check on the possibility of palliative care on an as needed basis . My question is does anyone here use this service and if so to what extent . My understanding is you can have assistance with home care , transportation , etc. , I already use the driver service for Dr. Appts. as there is no way I could drive to and sit and wait for doc without having to take something to ease the pain . And I do not want to be driving in that situation . The reason I ask is some days I feel like I can function enough to do most of the needed tasks (but pay for it later) , and I do not want to totally give up the independence . My wife works part time and my youngest child is going back to college this Fall so I will be here alone quite a bit . We live in a very rural area and there is not any public transportation available . Just wanted to get some thoughts , or ideas on this matter . Thank you all !
