Palliative care: Does the hospital have anybody that you can discuss palliative care with? If not, some home health services can provide this service after they do home.

Hospice care: There are many meds useful for anxiety associated with your mom's diagnoses. A call to a hospice program can link you with a provider that is specialized in managing complex end of life issues focusing on comfort and quality of life.
