The Culture that has been here all the time

MsDove​(sub female)​{Eternal Pi} - The best thing I was told is to plan, one step ahead so you are prepared for the next eventuality. It really helped knowing what I might expect and have a basic plan in place.
I honor your willingness to do it on your own, my friend, that's not sustainable. The county should have resources to provide (at a minimum suggestions). You might consider palliative care
"The World Health Organization (WHO) describes palliative care as "an approach that improves the quality of life of patients and their families facing the problems associated with life-threatening illness, through the prevention and relief of suffering by means of early identification and impeccable assessment and treatment of pain, illnesses including other problems whether physical, psychosocial, and spiritual."
Medicare allows for some in home services, such as regular nurse visits. They will teach you how to care for your wife (which really is an art), and recommend products. I think they may cover the cost of medications and any devices/supplies you might need like a bed (although that may only be hospice).
I wish you the best. I cared for my sister and my husband. They had physical needs, but were cognitively fine. That adds a whole different dimension.
Holding your meeting with your family flows with ease.

Andron - I needed the family doctor to prescribe palliative care and a Hospice evaluation she nixed it when the first Hospice Company deferred to another because of lack of staff. I will see her in two weeks I will ask again. TNX JH

MsDove​(sub female)​{Eternal Pi} - Staffing is not a reasonable reason to nix care. Holding all will work out with ease.
