One thing that caring for my dad has taught me is that we must fiercely protect our elderly! Our society has developed terrifying ideas and concepts about our elderly people and being elderly especially within the last decade. Not only are they not true, they're not right or moral either. This is one thing that caring for my dad has taught me. I've been lucky enough to watch both of my parents as elderly people, and they in turn, have taught me what it means to be elderly and how to care for them. How long the way I had run into some surprising and horrifying situations, and to top it off, these are from people who "think" that they know best. They don't!
My mom died in 2011 but well before then she became very sick and I began to learn lessons at that point when dealing with authority and the medical profession. I had to fight tooth and nail to keep a DNR order off of her! At every turn it was presented to her and to me and everybody and their Uncle tried to talk me and her into to putting one in place for her. Absolutely not! The thing had been mass copied and looked like an everyday flyer would, or maybe in a little worse condition than that. I was terrified of what that meant and come to find out I had every reason to be. Now I'm having to fight the same thing with my dad.
First off, after he had a stroke and a heart attack and then caught COVID-19 either while he was in the hospital or as soon as he got to the rehab facility that I had to put him in temporarily, when he came home because of his age and having COVID-19, he qualified for hospice and the doctor did suggest that I put him on it temporarily because we really needed their services. He said he could let her be taken off of it when he got better. It was explained to me that putting somebody on hospice nowadays didn't mean that they were terminal or dying. It just meant that a certain set of conditions have been met even if temporary. For Dad it was temporary. I can't tell you how many times just in the past 3 to 4 months that a DNR order has been shoved in my face and a few times quite literally, too. I have had to fight every time he has gotten any kind of medical care for one not to be put in place. The last time he was in the hospital I had to tell them almost daily that there was no DNR order in place with him and to please help him all that they could possibly help him. I told him to rip it up and delete it off of his medical records and his chart. Since it kept reappearing I worry every time now that it has came back and I have to fight it again. The worry has been justified. After I told them to delete it it still kept popping up. That is absolutely terrifying!
Dad has severe dementia. This has complicated things greatly. A lot of the medical people around him, especially hospice, started telling me that it didn't matter what he wanted! Yes it did! Here is the first complete immorality that is being done constantly to our elderly people. You don't just take somebody's free will and get away with it. The universe make sure of this. It's called karma. I firmly believe this. I'm telling you this because his dementia has played a part, a huge part, and then placing this DNR order on him without asking anyone including Dad, himself, or me. They actually outright said it did not matter what he wanted. May they get what they deserve!
I know for a fact that before the dementia set in that dad wanted to be helped and he wanted his life to be saved if possible. He had actually told them to do everything that they could for him. Now that his mind has gotten bad they are trying to negate this! We are never supposed to override free will as human beings with a conscious, especially if that free will isn't harming but protecting life and in line with nature as is the case with my dad's want and need for survival!
In conjunction with this fight for his right to survive I had to fight off hospice with their questions and almost force of will upon me and Dad with their main question of why wasn't I simply letting him die? No! I will not allow that especially when he's asking for help!!! They actually attempted to force this viewpoint upon me and quite visibally so. You could see that they were very upset that I was not complying! It simply isn't right!
So, this brings out a very important question and it is the elephant in the room. Since when did the medical profession start focusing on heading towards death instead of life?
We must invoke the angels to heal and especially protect them from this true evil.
They will legally kidnap them and take away their free will, even that of life! The warring angels will help!
Merry Meet, Merry Part, and Merry Meet again!
Blessed Be!
