[quote=Anonymous]We didn't give antibiotics to my dad when he got a bladder infection at the end. He was no longer even swallowing pills, so giving antibiotics would have required something more intrusive when he was otherwise able to lay peacefully in bed (no cathater, no IV, etc). Very normal. Glad he had that in his advanced directive. I believe in ours my mom always had the authority to override the decision, but the default was no antibiotics.[/quote]
