she aint going to relieve mike phelps of his olympic medals . at the point she's deemed to have an expectancy of 6 months or less to live the doc will likely recommend at home hospice services . this is fully covered by medicare .

try to respect your moms decisions . my mother refused treatment for a mass on her kidney . wise call imo . she was also dying from heart failure and dementia . she just knew the odds were against her winning this last battle .
