Tricia, what you did for Billy was not something everyone would have done. Some might have judged you for being cruel in keeping him alive after his catastrophic founder. But I guarantee if he was suffering you would have known it, and you would have put him down because you loved him so much. There...

to hone is to sharpen, as in hone skills, or hone a knife
home in means to to zero in on a target
Not at all interchangeable. Just because something is said or written over and over again incorrectly, it doesn't mean it should be accepted as correct.
