Guest guest Posted July 13, 2008 Report Share Posted July 13, 2008 Jmbo Didn't know we had another member in Lubbock. Do you know Wally in Snyder or in Lubbock? If not, they would be absolutely great people to meet. I've had that privilege. I'd even come to Lubbock for a greater Lubbock area get together. Now as to hospice and your health. It's hard to know where any of us stand, especially when we do have setbacks such as pneumonia. However, even if you're not to the point of needing hospice, I, personally find it in my nature to want to talk to them and fully understand and choose the one I like well in advance. Don't be too quick to judge where you are right after something like pneumonia. On the other hand, I hope finding out how hospice can comfort you when they are necessary will be a positive experience, even if scary to think of. > > Bruce et al.
