Oklahoma City ICU nurse Lizanne Jennings comforted her husband, Dennis, in the moments before he succumbed to Covid-19.
"Are you ready to be at peace?" she recalled asking him on November 23.
'He said, 'Uh-huh.' And I said, 'OK. Mom's fine. She's back at the house. She's going to stay with me.' Because I knew he would keep fighting if I told him my mom had already died. And so they started giving him morphine and Ativan. I turned him over and I rubbed his back. I said, 'I love you.' He said, 'I love you.' And I said, "You're going to go now, OK? You can finally be at peace.'" Dennis took his last breath 30 minutes later, Jennings told CNN's Kate Bolduan on Tuesday. Her mother, Linda, who had also been infected with Covid-19, had died just three days earlier.

Uh! This is sick.
I couldn’t believe it when I read it.
I thought assisted suicide was illegal in Oklahoma.
These policies are cruel in the extreme.
Trying to encourage liberals to keep the COVID body count high, until they securely occupy the White House? Or at least steal the Senate?
How is ativan and morphine putting him to death?
Ativan is used to sedate people on a ventilator.
Virtually no one who has agreed to be admitted to a hospital for Covid-19 gets better.
Virtually everyone who gets the hydroxychlorine cocktail has significant improvement within 12-24 hours and will test negative in five days.
After reading the article, I think SHE KILLED HIM INTENTIONALLY and this deserves a Full Blown Murder Investigation.
That article is pathetic. It is poorly written plus it sounds like two executions. Ativan and morphine is used for euthanasia. Maybe he was beyond hope but the writer just leaves it dangling.
She lied to him so he wouldn’t fight her. Later, she tries to explain how her mom got the virus without being exposed and her husband got it even though she warned him repeatedly.
The infected son says he could not visit his mom, whose is giving back rubs to the dying husband, because he “couldn’t get her sick”.
I didn’t know that. Thank you.
Can’t get anymore sedate then dead. A Google search will explain the combo of drugs she used.
I agree. The article was very poorly written. It should have included the info you provided.
That patient had do be a DNR..and then have Comfort Care orders made.
I've seen this hundreds of times...
I'm a DNR...but that doesn't mean all care stops.
Comfort care measures are generally written after staff, family, physicians, etc..meet and discuss what the family and the patient want. Most of these patients are terminally ill.....and/or don't want to be hooked up to machines anymore.
How is no one investigating this? Why are we all embracing this as normal?
I have read on this forum people feeling sorry for themselves because they can’t go visit an older parent who is scared and sitting alone in the nursing home. Well, find out what the staff is supposed to do, and do that. Then while following the same rules, go visit, and stop complaining. Fight, fight, fight.
Also, why does nobody ever ask what type of medicine these people were given. HCQ? steroid inhaler? The only numbers of dead people that matter are the ones that actually tried to treat it instead of just taking antibiotics, and hoping for the best.
... and that's... bad?
Both my parents - now deceased - were DNR, so I’m familiar with what it is.
From the article, it sounds as though she purposely administers a fatal last dose of Ativan & morphine.
DNR does not justify this.
This was active euthanasia, also known as homicide. It should NOT be tolerated. This man was medicated to death like a dog being put down.
It is full frontal evil
If they had been given or had taken HCQ triple play within 72 hrs of onset of symptoms they would all be alive today.
Yeah, that's odd too, isn't it? And of course, the upshot of this story is: Wear a mask... forever, essentially, I guess.
Stupid murderous media and health policy individuals should be charged with murder for preventing or actively discouraging HCQ for early treatment of COVID symptoms.
