[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Extreme care for old people who should be just allowed to die is literally bankrupting our country. A massive cultural shift is needed. [/quote] End of life extreme medical care is unnecessarily costly, it is cruel. My father has dementia, had a stroke, and never, ever wanted to live the way he is living. I get in arguements with my brother because I now refuse to take him to any doctor besides his primary care physician if he is in pain. I refuse the flu shot for him, refuse to take him to the cardiologist and neurologist. I asked my dad if he wants to go to the doctor and he says no and becomes agitated if he goes. I let him eat whatever he wants, let him drink beer if he asks for it. [/quote]
