Dear Doc: My mother is failing, with lots of medical problems that just have made her life miserable. She’s in pain all the time, she’s depressed, and her heart is failing. She was a lifelong smoker and is on oxygen. She can barely walk across the room without getting short of breath.

Dear reader: I have a motto — it’s never too early to go into hospice. Hospice is a Medicare Part A benefit. It’s officially for people who have a six-month life expectancy, but the rules are a bit blurry.
