8-31-2018 Live Chat Thread for FRIDAY

One of the biggest things a patient asks of a nurse is to have the family leave the room so they can "go". Happens way more than I can even tell ya.
That's interesting, you'd think on one hand they would not want to be alone.
 
Family is often told to "reasure" the patient it's ok for them to go. It goes off the rails when it becomes a mantra for the family.
My Dad was ready to go by the time he did in 2015. I'm sure he had been preparing for it for a while.
When I got is laptop he had even been searching for signs that you are dying.
