The shock of the amputation may kill her.

She is 93.

Maybe it’s time for one of her Doctors to read her Obama’s scribe about how it might be best if she just decided to hang it up.

Agreed, I don’t think she’s going to pull out of this.

Right. Don’t you think it’s time for some end-of-life counselling here? I mean after all, these are precious resources she’s using.

Yep, same thing happened to my 92-year old grandfather. He fell and broke his hip, became bedridden, developed circulation problems in his left leg, and gangrene set in. The doc had to amputate, and five days later, he was dead.

It was a pretty awful experience for him and our family, and I don't wish it on anybody.
