I almost wrote an email to one of the hospital staff, saying that I knew that the palliative care doc, and a hospitalist, both said that my mother is unlikely to live a long time, but could they find someone who thinks otherwise to give me the contrary view regarding treatment?   If I could find someone who didn't think that hospice was a good idea, I'd listen. Then I wrote 'Of course I know there aren't any guarantees', and I stopped and looked at what I'd written.  Guarantees are pretty much 
exactly what I want.
