Its his opinion. Not mine or anybody else's. Calm Down. You guys are taking this too seriously. What if the evil doctors were right. What if your mother DID (hypothetical)have dementia and/or signs of Alzheimers.
My mother was lucid and fully aware prior to going into the hospital with the flu. And prior to that, three years ago my father had a mini-stroke yet he, too, was lucid and fully aware and now he is in a skilled nursing facility in a fetal position, hooked up to a ventilation through a tracheostomy tube and has a feeding tube which doles out synthetic baby food to him in increments. We went through this before so I think I know what I am talking about. The only problem is my parents live 1800 miles from me and I could not be with my father every step of the way--for this I truly regret.
Nevertheless, I intend to be by my mother's side for how ever long it takes to get her well and I will buck the establishment for how ever long it takes to get her released into my care! Once my mother is well, then I will work on getting my father released into my care as well!
I am as mad as hell and I am not going to take it anymore.
