My thoughts are with you. It seems we physicians often have a harder time than most getting these basic issues of care resolved for our families. We deal with one end of the process over and over until it grinds us down, but we are never a part of the other side. The family discussion that others share are not available to us, because one person sits down at the table as a physician. And the physician who sits down at the table, after a full week of work just wants to see the right thing get done, (ordered) and doesn't need (or want) to work through the thought processes involved with the rest of the family. As a family we don't move along to the same conclusion. A lot of frustration results. Thoughts and prayers to you and yours.
