[quote=Anonymous]I think some of you underestimate the bias against old people in hospitals. It is one thing to empower your family to refuse ventilation, etc. I’ve had two people in my family die of dehydration because IV fluids were considered too much intervention. One had dementia but still enjoyed many parts of his life and had occasional lucid moments. The other was simply weak and recovering from COVID (caught at the same hospital during an outpatient visit.)[/quote]
