Its not pseudo-medical. I’m a trained professional.
You are absolutely correct. You can keep a personal alive with a feeding tube. I had a patient a few years ago who lived with a feeding tube for five years. Her daughter lived 2 miles away and for a year and a half, she never came to visit her once. But that’s another story.
I got a phone call one morning that the patient want responding. When I got there, she was mottling, had a high temp, and was gurgling. I took a syringe and withdrew the contents of her stomach, a procedure that you do before each tube feeding. You would not believe the copious amount of tube feeding in her stomach.
She was dying even with regular tube feedings. Because her body was shutting down, her body could no longer digest the feedings. The tube feedings were stopped becauseat the point that she was dying they were no longer a benefit to her.
I don’t know what more I can say to make you understand this.
You are the one who is being emotional and it is causing you to be irrational. I have been on both sides of this; as a health care professional and as a cargiver to several family members. It its clear you have no idea what you are talking about and are not interested in being educated.
My offer still stands to send you my phone number and we can talk. Otherwise, good day.
See my prior post to you.
