We had a little burst of doctor's appointments last week - eye doctor and her primary care doc. Her legs were terribly swollen (congestive heart failure, CHF), and couldn't pee, and trouble hearing. Doc suggested going to cardiologist for her heart, but I reminded him we're on hospice and... if there's nothing to really create a real fix, and no pain to fix, then why go? So, we won't go.
Mostly now, it's tedious punctuated by bursts of drama. Ho hum then some urgent care for congestive heart failure, then back to tedium.
We have little to say, but just sit together. I try to come up with something interesting, but even that is unnecessary... she just wants human presence.
