Is there a COPD support group near you? Maybe the hospital social workers know of one or of a hospice group. I ask only because I think you need moral as well as physical support. <br /><br />I would file a complaint against the nurses in both incidents. It will make you feel better and perhaps improve the care of the next patients that have those nurses.<br /><br />I know you understand the importance of taking care of yourself during this time, but please, please remember to do it! <br /><br />May God give you strength and peace. Hugs to you and Hubby.beckiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06400859161321357279noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-598921649498584368.post-25877084581607992492010-04-26T17:07:56.769-04:002010-04-26T17:07:56.769-04:00It is so important for a patient to have an advoca...It is so important for a patient to have an advocate at the hospital.

There are so many caring hospital personnel, and yet there is so much bureaucracy in hospitals and a shortage of staff that you wonder sometimes if they even read the charts of a patient and know what they're supposed to do. Hubby is so lucky to have you there to watch out for him. I hope that you have some support as well.<br /><br />Thanks for updating us; I have been worried how things were going with you. I will be keeping the two of you in my thoughts and prayers, Wendy.Rosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01384059342847120951noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-598921649498584368.post-62867894050829167762010-04-26T08:04:54.083-04:002010-04-26T08:04:54.083-04:00Oh Wendy, how awful for you and hubby!!

I can't imagine trying to cope with what you are having to do.<br />It's also hard to believe the ignorance of hospital staff who shouldn't be ignorant!! Why didn't the respirologist write on his chart to begin with???? Maybe you should make a big 'DO NOT TOUCH' sign and hang it by his bed!!<br />This is probably the toughest journey you will make in your life. I hope you can make it without getting too totally exhausted...ameliahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17380296569508243613noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-598921649498584368.post-29074816637387593972010-04-26T02:00:25.885-04:002010-04-26T02:00:25.885-04:00Wendy, I am so sorry that you are going through th...Wendy, I am so sorry that you are going through this Hell.<br />The hospital are behaving in an appalling way and you must feel you cannot trust them with your husband.<br />I really hope that now they have got a definite *Do not switch oxygen off * notice, that you will feel that you can leave him without too much worry.<br />I know that visiting and sitting about in hospitals is so exhausting and you have my empathy about that, you really do.<br />Wishing you better days......
