Hi, my mother passed away today. I’m sure it hasn’t fully hit me yet. Right now I am just angry. She was left lying in her own feces and blood since early last week. Hospice left her on a damaged oxygen machine for months. Gave her blood thinners even though they knew a tumor had ruptured and she was only going to lose more blood. They never gave her a bath or offered her food. They dogged my mom. Today they released the body and left. Leaving her body dead in our home. And since we don’t have funds right now I was left begging all kinds of different funeral homes to please work with us and DHS and to come At least get her body to a proper storage place. I can’t describe this level of anger and disbelief and just all around disgust. I pray you never experience this.

I'm so sorry for not only your loss but what you've had to go through. We experienced neglect with my mother before she passed last Thursday and I'm so angry it's hard to even grieve properly with everything I have to do. I hope you find peace and you're able to find the help you need. You can try to open a fundraiser through this site, that helped us some.

I am so sorry for your loss. I can't believe that a hospice group would do this type of thing. I learned a while back that not all hospice organizations are the same. When you are able to come up for air, I would definitely file a complaint with whatever agency is able to address this with them. If they are taking medicare money, I would call medicare and report them. Once again, my heart goes out to you and please take one day at a time.
