Marty Schottenheimer placed in Hospice
|
He's made how many millions of dollars for his family?
Now his family, wealthy, is throwing him in a hospice? Sure... enjoy the millions he earned, he won't know, he has friggin Alzheimers- don't take care of him - let strangers take care of him 'til he dies. Seriously? They have millions... hire private nurses and doctors and take care of him. People like this need the money taken from them. Just give it to charity and make them fend for themselves.

You sound like a joy at superb owl parties, oh wait, you don't do those. You realize hiring a private nurse and or doctor would be just as much a stranger, right? This is sad news, Marty and the Browns of the 80's helped me to fall in love with the game. I always had a ton of respect for him, and hate that his final days will end up going down this path.

Yep, they would be strangers... visiting YOUR home... with YOUR family around - versus a Hospice with a bunch of disgusting invalid old people. If I had millions of dollars I wouldn't send my family member to hospice. You have a thousand other options having that amount of cash (02-03-2021, 05:02 PM)TrivialPursuit Wrote: He's made how many millions of dollars for his family? Do you know what you are talking about?

I know most hospice care is provided in the persons home.. the news article specifically said he'd be placed in a hospice facility. That's what bothers me.

Wait... they may have been holding out on us! He apparently just wants to be angry today. I hope Marty is home and gets to watch the Super Bowl. We’re all really looking forward to watching it this year!! We show less advertisements to registered users. Accounts are free; join today!

Did it ever occur to you that he might need specialized equipment or care not available in a home situation? There are 10 kinds of people in this world. Those who understand binary and those who don't.
My Aunt's family hired a private nurse to come into her house every day. The nurse got COVID and brought it into the house, and my Aunt and Uncle both got Covid. My Aunt died from it. Hospice requires their staff to self-test every day. So it may be in Marty Schottenheimer's best interest to use hospice, especially since there's a pandemic going on.

You have no idea what that family is going through. The guy might be a vegetable by now. He is literally on the verge of death. How would it help him to have private nurses in his house? What about the rest of his family? He has a wife who is also elderly and maybe she doesn't want nurses and doctors coming in and out of her house exposing her to Covid. I know a person who caught Covid from a home health care worker and died of it.

With Covid, the probably exhausted all other options. I don’t think money is in the equation.
I just hope Brian isn’t distracted by all this and gets his job done here.....that’s probably why he tossed him off onto other people. Paycheck here, paycheck there! Win-win.

In-facility hospice care may very well have been his decision.
When you get into the endzone, act like you've been there before.
I am assuming this struck a personal chord with the OP. If you struggled watching a family member go into hospice or deteriorate with Alzheimer’s, I am sorry for your loss.
I will say, I watched my Grandfather struggle to care for my grandmother while she died of Alzheimer’s. The stress drove him downhill as well. I wonder sometimes if the patients really want their loved ones to suffer caring for them. I know if I start to go down that road, I’d like to head to a facility and spare my loved ones from going down with me. Just my opinion, not a judgment on others. My condolences to Marty and his family.
