The ER was a nightmare for Ryan during his recent crisis too. If I had been left at their mercy - they would not have put him on the ventilator. They would have let him die. THey told me they didn't think he had a great quality of life. I could NOT believe it. And I WILL be writing a letter about it.
But the ICU staff were wonderful and made up for all of it. Trouble was - sending him home so soon after he came off the ventilator. BUT - with the excellent care we provided - he is doing wonderful. But maybe that's a miracle.
