My wife is a charge nurse at the Hospice. Regularly she is asked how long someone has left before the inevitable. She now usually responds by saying what she thinks but adding that it is only her opinion and that she may be wrong. She has seen patients who appear to be at the end of their lives recover and get discharged from the hospice, similarly she has seen patients who appear to be in no immediate likelihood of dieing going into a sudden decline and passing away in a few short hours. I know that I could not do her job or any other healthcare professional for that matter. We are all human at the end of the day |

My brother in law has downs. When covid 19 started my sister in law was ask to sign a DNR for him. If he was taken into hospital at any time. We all said not a chance. On the other hand when my son was 18 months we had him to the doctors as he was ill we were told he had tonsillitis. We ask could it be meningitis we were told not to worry it not that. That was at 5pm by midnight he was in a induced coma having being diagnosed with meningitis at 10pm . He made a full recovery 🙏
