That's not really true. Having just been through this with my mother there is a huge amount of hospital care required during terminal cancer. For starters radiotherapy is often used to control symptoms. It may not do anything for length of life but targeting key tumours can keep you mobile for longer, reduce the risk of seizures etc. It can be a boon to quality of life. There will also almost certainly be other things that occur along the way that require visits to hospital. That is complications that could kill you but can be treated without too much discomfort where you can get back onto your feet. Infections are incredibly common for example. Particularly if you're on steroids. Obviously you'll rule some things out, e.g. chemo as not worth the cost during palliative care.
