I just heard from my brother that my father thought his bipap wasn't working properly. Turns out it was anxiety and hospice has now told him to increase the usage (he is currently using about 75% of the day), take ativan and take morphine 4 times/day.
I am planning to go next Saturday as of right now due to other updates such as he isn't eating as much anymore, he's not leaving the bedroom for up to 4 hours at a time and his voice is weakening.
I guess the question is do I have enough time to get there based on how things are progressing. Both the aide and RN told my mother yesterday that he is going downhill and they have both only seen him a handful of times.
