SHE NEVER CONSENTED TO BE PARALYZED

I AWOKE THIS MORNING JUST HAVING IT ECHO IN MY HEAD THAT MY MOTHER NEVER WOULD HAVE WANTED THIS. SHE NEVER IN A MILLION YEARS WOULD HAVE CONSENTED TO A PARALYTIC DRUG, NEVER EVER IN A MILLION YEARS WITHOUT PAIN MEDICATION...AND SHE WOULD NEVER HAVE IN A HUNDRED BILLION YEARS CONSENTED TO THE AMOUNT SHE WAS GIVEN.

MY MOTHER WOULD HAVE VIEWED BEING GIVEN A PARALYTIC DRUG AS TORTURE. SHE WOULD HAVE SAID THE AMOUNT WAS TOO DANGEROUS FOR HER SICK BODY. SHE WAS NEVER GIVEN THE CHOICE.

WHEN MY FATHER WAS TAKEN OFF LIFE SUPPORT UP AT OHSU TWO YEARS EARLIER MY FATHERS WIFE, (I CALL HER MOM) WAS TELLING ME THAT THE DOCTORS UP AT OHSU WERE CONSTANTLY ASKING HER WHAT MY FATHER WOULD HAVE WANTED. EVEN RIGHT BEFORE HE WAS UNPLUGGED THEY ASKED AGAIN AND AGAIN IF SHE WAS SURE THAT THIS WAS WHAT HE WOULD HAVE WANTED.

NO ONE AT KENNEWICK GENERAL HOSPITAL CARED WHAT MY MOTHER WOULD HAVE WANTED. NO ONE AT KENNEWICK GENERAL HOSPITAL ASKED ANY ONE OF US WHAT SHE WOULD HAVE WANTED. FIRST THEY REVIVED HER IN SPITE OF A CURRENT DNR AS DR NIENDORF DOCUMENTS IN HIS CHARTING...THEN THEY PARALYZE HER AGAINST HER WISHES,( MY DADS WIFE WAS TELLING ME MY FATHER UP AT OHSU HAD A DOCTOR WHOSE SOLE JOB WAS KEEPING DAD COMFORTABLE THROUGHOUT HIS PROCESS WHETHER SHE LIKED IT OR ANYONE ELSE LIKED IT OR NOT)...THEN THEY GAVE HER AN OVERDOSE OF A DRUG THAT ONLY PARALYZES. NO PAIN KILLERS, NO SEDATIVE, NO RESPECT.

IT IS MY FIRM BELIEF THAT MY MOTHER WAS FORCED TO ENDURE EVERYTHING ON MAY 9TH 2008 THAT WAS COMPLETELY AGAINST HER WISHES.
