4. Hospice to Assisted Living? It usually is the other way around.

How did that happen? Sounds like she has depression and may need to have people try to cheer her up and get her involved in things although I know that does not always work.
My mom was in Hospice a few months back and died. I moved my dad into Assisted Living because he was not eating, was frail, etc.... so we sold his house and there he sits in an efficiency with a nice view and close access to his car and good cooked meals. He is starting to have memory issues so am hoping the better nutrition will keep him going a bit longer.
