euphonasia for the old in our NHS ? 19.11.17




this is on stepping stones

on the NHS not going rogue

exceeding excellent care head to toe and all bones

only praise to NHS from no news papers to vogue.

step in a source

can not and will not identify

to the cemetery is the force

ward nurses admit but afraid to testify.

it is a crime that's heinous

time money and work load is the saviour

the first trick is to withdraw the intravenous

straight away a change in behavior.

more medication

your loved one is so sleepy

all are desperate with no realization

its NHS corruption and its running deeply.

you get the call that's dreaded

still thankful our NHS is not in asia

would it be more humane to have beheaded

the question is are old people and the NHS euphonasia.

I hope so...

When someone goes into the dying process and starts to become agitated because the organs are shutting down, (remember, dying can sometimes be a very painful process) they do give morphine along with other meds for pain relief and deep sleep sedation and when dying is inevitable, they continue dosing up to the point of respiratory distress. They don't just do this for elderly people but for people who are in the process of dying and where there is no chance of recovery. They aren't doing the killing though, they are giving a dying person a more honorable way to die and perhaps a slightly quicker way out.

We wouldn't allow our pets to suffer a long and distressful dying process and we shouldn't, unless a person has enough capacity to say otherwise, allow our fellow man to suffer a long and painful death.

Yes. They call it "nil by mouth" and it is effectively the process of... erm... "hastening" the dying process... essentially it's used as a legal way to kill off people who would be "at death's door" for weeks / months otherwise.

It would be far better if they just legalized actual euthanasia.

Since the end of the Liverpool care pathway there will have to be a new way found to free up beds as there is no social care.

'there have been a number of high-profile allegations that people have been placed on the LCP without consent or their friend’s or family’s knowledge.'

'Concerns have also been raised about hospitals receiving payments for increasing the number of patients who are placed on the LCP.'

They have my vote to turn that morphine driver to full.
