By proceeding, I agree that I understand the following disclosures:
I. How We Work in Washington. Based on your preferences, we provide you with information about one or more of our contracted senior living providers ("Participating Communities") and provide your Senior Living Care Information to Participating Communities. The Participating Communities may contact you directly regarding their services. APFM does not endorse or recommend any provider. It is your sole responsibility to select the appropriate care for yourself or your loved one. We work with both you and the Participating Communities in your search. We do not permit our Advisors to have an ownership interest in Participating Communities.
II. How We Are Paid. We do not charge you any fee – we are paid by the Participating Communities. Some Participating Communities pay us a percentage of the first month's standard rate for the rent and care services you select. We invoice these fees after the senior moves in.
III. When We Tour. APFM tours certain Participating Communities in Washington (typically more in metropolitan areas than in rural areas.) During the 12 month period prior to December 31, 2017, we toured 86.2% of Participating Communities with capacity for 20 or more residents.
IV. No Obligation or Commitment. You have no obligation to use or to continue to use our services. Because you pay no fee to us, you will never need to ask for a refund.

Please accept my heartfelt condolences in the passing away of your mother.
I am so glad that both you and your husband were able to be with her until the end and that she passed away peacefully. When it comes to death and dying, it really doesn't get any better than that. Not only that but, the fact that she was at home and in her bedroom is what a lot of us could only wish for.
Your mother's life ended just like my dad's and like you I felt such deep gratitude and thankfulness for everything hospice did in caring for my dad in the home I grew up in and that he too wasn't in a sterile hospital environment.
You have been a real trooper through this and I commend you for that. I know it's just the beginning of your grieving process and that you will still feel the pain and sorrow but, I know you will all get through this. With your lovely post, you have already begun to "pay it forward."
You will be in my thoughts and prayers. Hugs to you - take care of yourselves.
"He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds." Psalm 147:3
Sorry for your loss. 🍂🍂🌹🍂🍂
Psalm 34:18, “The Lord is near to the brokenhearted and saves the crushed in spirit.”
Praise The Lord that you were able to have her home during her final hours.
May God grant you grieving mercies and comfort during this difficult time.

I just lost my husband 3 weeks ago, and he too was able to die at home like he wanted. I pray for peace and comfort in the days, weeks, and months ahead for you and your family. God bless you.
My condolences.
I am so sorry for your loss. You are one of the kindest people on this forum and have been an inspiration to all of us.
I am glad that you did things exactly how you wanted to and that your mom died peacefully in her bedroom in the way that you wanted her to spend her last hours.
I am also glad that you had help from hospice. They are wonderful!
Your mom was so very blessed to have you as a daughter. Many hugs. Be at peace.
The world will feel very strange to you now and for some time, be prepared. It's good to know you and your husband have each other to lean on.
