Pain or Death?!.. - Page 5

Ok God i wish i never saw this topic. 😭

I and my family just went thru this. My grandma was diagnosed with cancer last year sometime in August. She didnt know she had Cancer but she was in sooooooooooo much pain. Eevery time she had to move, get out of bed, go to bed, go to the bathroom anything she did she would scream in pain. The doctors decided to put her on heavy pain managment wycodine, morphine,phentanyl patches etc etc and she was a lille ok. My family decided we were not going to do any chemo therapy because she was too week and she wont be able to handle it. My dad died of Cancer too. She was a lille ok with the pain managment. She wanted to go back to INdia for my cousins weeding. She went back to Indian in Dec. She started geting sick in February and she was on oxygen. We created like a ICU in home. Full time nurses, two doctors round the clock comeing to check her 3-4 times a day. She was in sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo much pain. Everybody in my family including her kids and everybody in the family were at a point like " God please let her go" If she has to go let her go in peace. Finally she passed away on the 14th April 😭

But now that she is gone everybody is like we wish God would have given her 5 more years even in pain. Its a tough call and situation.
😭

Oh i miss her so much.

Siddh, 🤗🤗🤗 I agree it was a tough call 😔.

People do not fear death as much as they fear the discomort leading upto it. 'Relieve the discomfort and let nature take its course' is the answer.

I agree with you .. I am against mercy killing

Thanks Maya for the hugs.

Often times, due to their illness, people feel depressed and wish that they could die. They may also want to have euthanasia if they feel that they are being a burden (both mentally and money related, for lots of money is needed to care for someone in a hospital). So, after seeing this side of the story, I ask you: Pain or Death?

Obviously, my point of view is that death is not the answer. People should live their lives to the fullest, no matter how it is...

Good Question! 👏
