My husband has Dementia. He has also recently been told he has Stage 4 Bone Cancer. I was told he has about 3 months to live. The problem I am facing is that I do not want him told and yet I am being told by My GP and the Hospice Staff that they have a legal obligation to tell him his prognosis. I totally disagree. If I arrange for him to to take out an LPA giving me Power of Attorney, would the Authorities then have to agree with MY wishes (not to tell him) or, being they are following the 'rules' can they still go ahead and tell him? No one will see him otherwise.They say they have a legal and moral obligation to inform patients about every step of care. I say they should just get on with it and that there is nothing whatsoever to be gained by telling a patient they are literally at Deaths door. I would appreciate any help to my enquiry urgently. Thank you.
