I actually have worked in many Hosp's, and still work in a small Hosp.

I've seen gruesome deaths...You would not believe what I've seen.

I've coded 90+ year old people...that the first thing we do is break their sternums and ribs doing compressions..

It's not something you want to see or do.

I've seen people that think their loved one should be saved at all costs...because of MONEY...way too much.

My advice is get you affairs in order...and have a POA that you trust.

Make yourself a DNR...That doesn't mean we don't treat. It means we do not intubate you and do CPR on you.

Thank you, I posted much less eloquently what you just posted and I agree with you.
