I really wanting to know about the end of life for my husband.  He has had MS for 32 years.  He is now 74 and just released from the hospital with Pnomonia and UTI infection.  He was in the hospital and they put him on a venilator immediately the off then back in Intensive Care but he now refuses to go back on the venilator.  I was told by his doctors that he is terminal and is on hospic.  Can you tell me what else I can expect.  I care for him at home with sitters during the day.  I love him so much but do not want him to suffer.  When he was on the venilator tears ran down his face asking me to take it off and he wanted to die at home.  I am so worried, can you answers this question for me
