My husband was diagnosed with Alzheimer's. Does he qualifies for hospice or for a nursing home through the Veteran's benefits program.

I am getting ready for what's coming. My question is: what is hospice and who pays for it? My husband was a Marine for 4 years and 2 years in the reserves.

Does any one know if he qualifies for hospice or for a nursing home through the Veteran's benefits program. Of course, I will not abandon him. I love him and will visit him every day. We don't have a lot of money.

I don't think I can do this. I am already becoming exhausted from answering the same question over and over again. He is also always talking about dead people especially, about his relatives that have passed away.
