So get right with your Creator ahead of time. Don't wait for last confessions or deathbed remorse: there might not be a chance for that.
General Question to All: Is it common practice for an admitting nurse in an ER to ask if you have a Living Will? Or is that question designated to those of us who have chronic medical conditions, in my case, MS?
My dad was overdosed with multi meds, and would not eat, and was extremely unresponsive. My mom told them to reduce the medication, and dad bounced back.
The same situation happened to my sister's mother-in-law.
I do not think it was intentional, but in any event, we REALLY have to watch our loved ones when they are in a hospital/nursing home.
Ping a ling to the horror of modern medicine, "DO HARM" the new oath.
I have been trying to warn people about this for more years than I care to remember. It was during my Fathers illness and hospitalizations that I realized what was going on. If I hadn't been there almost day and night he would never have made it as long as he did. Finally, when I wasn't there early one morning, he did die, and they followed none of our instructions. The same thing happened to my grandmother 4 years later. A living will did no good, the power of attorney did not good. She was doing very well one day, and the next it was like a different person.
Frightening is hardly the word. The moment you enter the hospital with your parents or grandparent they are pushing you to "let Mom die with dignity. If it were my mom I would" etc.
This is murder, and it is happening everywhere! The family isn't always aware of it as they are programmed to trust the medical profession. DON'T . I have lost two of the people I loved most in the world to them.
