My grandma just called me. My grandpa is refusing medication and refusing to eat/drink. They put him on an iv for hydration. She is likely going to organize hospice care through the nursing home. Unsure whether she is going to bring him home for hospice, if it’s even feasible. His room at their house is very small. I’m sure she would like him to pass in the comfort of his own home but it may not be realistic.
It’s so hard. I’ve lost many people, and each one is hard. My grandpa, it’s less heart wrenching because he’s lived a very long life, but still. It hurts to see someone go.
