So today went pretty much like I thought it would. Doesn’t matter whether her dr sent the referral, they have to meet a criteria. Basically because mom can still walk a little, say more than 6 words she doesn’t qualify. I’m frustrated but have resigned myself to the fact that I’m in this alone for the long haul. I appreciate this time with my mom and I know I’m doing everything possible for her. Hospice Nurse will be back in a month. Thanks everyone for your kindness.
