Once in the room, the nurse said I could not take off my mask or gloves. I told her I had been married to this man for nearly 50 years and I WILL be taking off my mask and gloves to touch him skin-to-skin. I told her I'd go quietly if they call the cops to arrest me, but in the meantime, I am touching him, perhaps he will feel me even through this induced coma.
At one point, I thought I saw a tiny tear come from beneath his left eyelash. I was told that it couldn't be a tear because he is not cognizant of anything right now. The doctor said it was just the glycerin they put in his eyes.
It was a brutal experience ... my daughter didn't want me to make a scene ... all in all it would make a script for a scene in a horror movie. Knowing my husband was a Christian and did not fear death made me stronger than I would have been otherwise. I am always in tears myself when I read of others who went through this experience.
I brought my dad to our one hour visit. He was uncomfortable- dementia and wanted to go home after 15 minutes. I tried to get near my mom. My leg slipped off her bed and I blew a disc. 4 hours later hospice called: run here fast,she is actively dying. My mom died 25 minutes later. I don’t forget this evi
Thank God for small miracles!!
I am so happy that they allowed you to go be with him!!
It has been nearly 27 months since my brother passed. He passed with a stranger by his bedside, if anyone was there at all. It totally burns me.
My brother was the nicest guy, a good, godly, Christian man. He did not deserve to be isolated from his family. Besides the Fauci protocol, I am certain that what killed him was the fact that he was alone and isolated. It was pure hell for us, and I know even worse hell for him, and my SIL, and their family.
I thank God that your hospital allowed you to be there with him. Very grateful for that! It actually helps me in a strange way to know that at least someone wasn’t so heartless with the patient and family. God bless you!!
