| Adapted from an online discussion. Dear Carolyn: My husband and I have recently discussed the difficult topic of whether he’s ready to enter hospice. He has challenging medical issues that most of our friends are not privy to. I know how much he suffers because I’m with him on a day-to-day basis. However, friends and family see him as “fine” and “doing so well.” I’ve tried to bring up hospice with a couple of them, and they’ve expressed shock, like I’m trying to do him in. Nothing could be further from the truth. Any good ideas about what to share (or not) to get the support I need? — Anonymous Read your responses to this week’s reader question We asked readers to channel their inner Carolyn Hax and answer this question.
