The husband of a couple my wife and I have been helping and been friends of for about 30 years is dying.

He's in the hospital now but says he doesn't want any treatments anymore because he feels his body can't take it. He had a heart attack about 25 years ago and has been living with just 25% of his heart working, so he's had significant health problems since then.

He needs dialysis but he might refuse that too so he might pass away very soon.

We are trying to find if a hospice is available to take him but he might pass away before we can get him there.
