My boyfriends dad went into the hospital after Thanksgiving and the doctor says he's in end stage renal disease and he isn't a candidate for dialysis anymore due to his extended history of heart diseases so he got a referral to hospice. They gave him 6 months to live but I know that's extremely generous. Hospice gives longer than what's realistic so the family doesn't freak out and stuff. His dad is states away from us and I know that he probably has weeks, at most a month, left to live so we have to plan to go visit him before things go mega bad. He's going to be mentally incoherent and probably unconscious by the time we see him so I'm mentally preparing myself for that. I'm mostly concerned about my partner. His dad was super abusive to him growing up but my partner still loves him due to the fact that he's dad, but he's going through every emotion possible right now (mostly grief) and it's been a handful to take care of him & ALSO still plan things for the holiday. And work is JUST starting to kick up for end of the year tax season. This is going to be a hectic as heck December
