More on dad
Well, it took a week in the hospital before they let him out to a care center. he is looking much better, and he's obviosly healing.
He's complaining of an awful lot of pain, and wonders why (Ron and I) couldnt let him just pass away, and i find myself wondering the same question.
At what point are we extending life that it isnt worth living? How do you judge a person's quality of life?
Why don't we want to answer the hard questions about what medical procedures we would want preformed on ourselves?
why doesnt my Dad define what he wants? I guess he's not as strong (in character) as I had always wanted him to be.
Sad that now when he's at his weakest we expect him to be mentally or emotionally stronger, and this isnt the movies. it isnt going to happen.
For now I hope that the change in his pain meds will help, and that we can bring him home.
