I did wonder if it was because of the Epstein stuff. My other thought was could he make more money out of lawsuits (his cut) than out of supporting the pharmaceutical companies. Expecially as the producer is now independent from Johnson and Johnson. Maybe he wants the pharmaceuticals to buy his silence, and if they don't he'll get some lawyer to give him a cut of whatever they make out of it publically. Although sounds an arse way of going about things. This is pretty desperate if it is all to make the Epstein news vanish, because it wont anyway. All very strange behaviour from the man, but defo an agenda in there somewhere, i just haven't convinced myself what it is.
Yeah i saw that, i would have said so on the crime thread but when I found he only got 12 months I swerved it to stop me getting annoyed. These sentences are a complete joke and I don't just mean for asylum seekers.
Probably around 15 on this particular issue. Remember I used to work with GPs I've also got some close friends who are GPs too.
I think it's also about people making choices, just because a consultant or specialist say they can do x y z, don't mean that you have to take it. None of us are here to live forever and one day one way or another reality faces everyone. For me it's about quality of life and is the brain still functioning in the way you would like, and what messages in personal conversations/instructions have you left your family. It's like I once said to my consultant and also to my family, just don't wake me up....I know legally it's not as straightforward as that, but at least then people know your choices but I suppose some people never have those conversations.
My only current goal is to get to 67 so I can stick my two fingers up to David Cameron. See what fate decides.
I am going through this exact issue right now with my Mum and her doctors. Without going into specifics she basically has some terminal conditions, one of which will finish her off at some point. I've had the discussion with her about DNR and what her wishes are. It now needs to be recorded so that it can be shared with her GP and any of the medical team when that moment arrives. It was ****ing tough to bring it up with her, but I waited until one of those cheery Cremation ads came on the tele when I was round there and thought, this is probably as good a time as ever to bring it up.
Yeah I probably couldn't have that convo, I can do it about myself, because it;s my body my life, but I appreciate the predicament with such a situation.
just seen him at the UN attacking London/Khan and that he wants to see London under Sharia law. bloke is a liability and ‘leader’ of the free world. Not sure if this is a dream or a massive episode of Beadle’s About
Lol would be ****ing funny if Jeremy Beadle jumped out and shoved a mic in the audience's face and pointed at the camera filming them I mean he'd dead, but you get the drift
I had to have some very tough convo's with my mum when my Dad was dying from Dementia, as she simply didn't cope with any of it and went into denial. I remember vividly speaking to the Doctor who told me that they weren't going to give my Dad anymore Saline solution and that it was time to let him die peacefully. And then having to relay the conversation to my mum. I've let my missus and daughter know my wishes, and it's not to be revived if I have no quality of life. I don't want to be a cabbage and I don't want to be a burden on either of them. So just let me slip away
While on dialysis I had a discussion with the consultant and we completed a DNACPR form. Having my blood pumped round a machine for four hours, three time a week made me think….
Yep, that's the one I'm going through with my mum atm. I can imagine how sobering it must be to have to go through that for yourself.
He was telling NATO today to shoot down Russian jets if they stray again....once they do that he'll be saying, you started a ****ing war now.
I can only speak from the experience I had with my MIL before her death. She spent 6 months in and out of hospital with little treatment. It did feel like it was a case of “well she’s 84 and had a good innings, let’s just make her comfortable”
