Here are some questions that were answered in the video:

From @CathyThorsen “Isn’t that what palliative care is for? When they’re not going to get better, but they’re not likely to die soon?”

From @66NEETS “Hi Julie I’m not sure if you have done a video on this but what is the difference between hospice and palliative care? My mom will be 92 in June she just broke her hip :/ 3 weeks ago. I watch her daily suffering so badly in tremendous pain in rehab she’s not getting any better it breaks my heart to think of her becoming a nursing home patient there is so much neglect :/ zero compassion. Within 4 days she had a full on diaper rash of her entire butt now today I see actual break down happening. She stands up for therapy but she’s in pain and I don’t see her ever staring on her own agains she’s so weak :/ I keep asking her to think about palliative care but she won’t answer me she acts like she doesn’t hear me. I’m in Florida but I’m not sure about the laws and the difference between the 2. Sorry for the rambling”

From @nogarlicplease “I have a question Julie. What is the difference between Hospice and Palliative Care ? My daughter passed away on Feb. 20th 2023 in Hospice. I also had a friend pass in Palliative Care. Is it based on their condition or the time they have left?”

From @CatCmdr “What about Palliative Care? That is different from Hospice Care. There doesn’t need to be imminent death?? ❤❤”
