I work in a nursing home as an activities assistant. I have sat with my friends as they are dying...singing to them, reciting scripture, holding their hand, swabbing their lips, fluffing their pillows...was honored to be at the bedside of a veteran, as he pass on to glory. It ripped my heart out. It still does. Every one of my residents is a person with a life story and great value to those who shared their life, as well as value to the Lord. They deserve the right to die in God’s time, with dignity. Hospice does everything to be with them and keep them comfortable and as pain free as possible, when they are involved. When they aren’t involved, we do everything within our power to do the same for them. I cannot fathom doing this to anyone...refusing them the care they need...Terri and this other woman, they suffer an awful death when they are starved and dehydrated. I witnessed this being done and it took 4 weeks for her to die!! 4 weeks!! HOW is that humane? HOW is that right? It isn’t.
