Your proposition that 'It's a natural and understandable human response to hope for the best when an elderly person is nearing the end of their life.', is unfortunately wrong, very wrong; at least in the society in which we live.

Younger peoples' natural response is to voice sympathy, but immediately plan and scheme to divide up the resources of an individual no longer capable of efficiently utilizing them. The rule is that families are torn apart at the death of an elder of any power.

In the Medical care field, the people entrusted with carrying out the Care Processes are very often uncaring and efficient purveyors of death hastening or income increasing schemes to take advantage of elder resources and programs. When you die, particularly when you die in a medical care facility, be it hospital, care home, or hospice, you can be assured that you will be fleeced until your pockets are empty and then given a fast track to the backdoor stripped down ambulance that takes you to the facility that does the final fleecing. The ultimate response of most of your friends will be 'He looks good!'.

The people who care, are hindered by Human Resources vampires and blood suckers whose sole purpose it is to efficiently push you onto that final tram that takes you out the back door.

Make no mistake about it. Once you head down that final dead end path you become an inconvenience and it doesn't matter what you think or feel. Just die and do it fast so others can go on living.

That's the way it is. If you think it is a rough view it comes from someone who worked in the field for many years and saw more of this than most of us can accept.
