I am not insinuating anything. I am stating that patients are dehydrated. In fact, I was told by the hospice nurse that it’s a pleasant way to go.
To deny that patients are being dehydrated is avoiding the truth.
Do some googling. Your’ll find in a couple of minutes health professionals pushing dehydration, e.g., “”The process of starving to death seems very barbaric but in actuality is very peaceful,” said Dr. Fred Mirarchi, assistant clinical professor of emergency medicine at Drexel University College of Medicine in Philadelphia.
That hospice nurse and that Dr are obviously idiots. Dehydration (in people with a thirst sense intact) is a hideous way to go.
Mild/moderate dehydration for several days leads to renal failure resulting in urea poisoning, which IS a peaceful way to go. MUCH better than pneumonia.
Pneumonia and renal failure are the two primary proximal causes of death.
If it’s anything like fasting, you don’t feel hungry after the first three days. Nonetheless, if I want to starve to death, that is my choice. If I don’t want to starve to death and some old folks home starves me to death, that is murder.
