The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

Update.

She failed the swallow test. So a cadre of medical people are saying to put her into hospice. No feeding tubes (dementia patients often pull them out, which is bad). The hospice will work with her MC facility, and provide what she needs (wheelchair, bed alarm, etc). The diagnosis is stroke, so anything related to a stroke the MC staff calls the hospice. If it's unrelated, they can call 911.

It's nice she'll be able to go back to familiar surroundings. A hospice facility would just upset her more because she would not know it. She knows her room.
