I’ve heard people under ventilators have to be sedated, the process is so horrible. Maybe vents could be used off labe; dual purpose so to speak? Especially if insuffecient sedation is used, hmm?

I woke up in the hospital intubated...had pneumonia-related respiratory failure in 2017; I was a smoker and couldn’t fight it without a ventilator.
It was way past horrible. I am lucky to be alive and not on oxygen. The Lord was good to me.
I won’t touch a cigarette with a ten foot pole now.
I am glad you are well now, KittenClaws!
