My father has had a relapse of his thrombotic thrombocytopenia purpura.
He has refused all medical treatment including dialysis. He has not eaten although he has a protein shake. He doesn't even eat the Jello.
The doctors have put him on morphine for the pain and are administering an IV solution to calm him down.
The nurse informs me that given the current condition of my father, they give him less than a week to live.
It is time to go home and say good-bye to my father before he passes on. My mother is a nervous wreck and so am I.
