What to expect?

Our situation with my dad sounds similar. My dad (84) diagnosed with MDS in spring ’11. My mother is primary care giver -- a demanding task. His transfusions have ceased and we initiated hospice care in the home about 3 weeks ago. So far hospice care has been perfect fit for our situation. He sleeps ~16 hours a day now. Want to keep him at home--just not sure how his condition will progress. Labs from early Sept: WBC 0.6, RBC 2.16, HGB 7,5, MCV 102, PLT 26
