Thinking of you chuggs. Whatever you do has to be what you will be able to live with. Personally I would not trust drs as much as I once would have.
Keep us posted
Chuggalug hope for the best possible outcome.
Sorry, chuggs, posted on the other thread before I realised. Thinking of you. xx
Pouring with rain now and wind getting up. Looks like a rough night
I looked at my mum's care home notes,and her GP had written DNR on them without speaking to me.
He had visited mum once in a 2 year period,she wasn't near deaths door at the time of his visit,so i wanted to know why.
I phoned him and he said "your mum is old,what is the point of resusicitation,do you want to see her suffer?"Of course i didn't,but wanted to be asked as i was her only relative and next of kin.He was a horrible little man.
I eventually agreed to the DNR at a later date,when i thought it was appropriate.He was the homes GP,and had put DNR on everyones notes!
I was 'talked' into mum being placed on the Liverpool Care Pathway when she started refusing food,i was told it was for the best,but who for,when poor mum lasted 3 weeks on it,with no food/drink or medication.It traumatised me,it was so wrong,i will never get over it.
So the point to my post is,do what you feel is right.
Thinking of you at this sad time,and sending hugs.xx
Well, he's still alive, honey, so no gripes yet. I will refuse a decision. I'm not a doctor. And for who's benefit is the DNR thing anyway? From that kind of wording, we see that the elderly are no longer revered as they once were. I've lived long enough to see the changes in society, and what we have now sickens me. Boy, could I tell you some stories. I thought the doctor was going to start on the LCP thing this morning. It's not on, and I will not take part in it.
Truly sorry for you, Kassy. Leaves me speechless, that
