Thank you to everyone for your kind words of condolence. I have only one more thing to say on this, and I'm so sorry to be morbid on such a beautiful sunny Father's Day, but perhaps this advice will help someone in the future. As in the case of Diana, many cancer patients are sent home to die, when the doctors feel there is nothing more that can be done. If you ever find yourself in the position of caring for a dying loved one, I urge you to be prepared ahead of time with the proper prescriptions to assist them to exit painlessly. If you do not have these prescriptions on hand, you may find that the "system" does not move quickly enough to accommodate your loved one. There were some foul-ups in this area in Diana's instance, which resulted in an excruciating few hours, which will haunt her family and friends for a long time to come. As Hospice says, there is absolutely no reason for a dying cancer patient to die in pain. Thank you again to everyone, you are all very kind.
