"""status of sedation and pain easing medications? Would i not be better to administer something of the sort and allow the patients to live their lives out fully?"""
sedation and pain easing are fine on a first look but it brings up the question of cabbage like physical existence drugged up to glory doesn't take into consideration that at the point of needing being sedated and drugged up the sufferer will be caused more damage via bed sores and leisons which will need yet more sedation and drugs to avoid yet more pain...plus the treatment of such sores and leisons ..which can and frequently are so deep the bone can be seen..very nasty for both the sufferer and the prime care giver plus the effects such sedation /drugs have on urine and bowels...[frequently never spoken about..but very important issues to patients on a daily basis] its not as simple as living out their lives so many different factors are involved in the different scenarios of end of life..remembering that some sufferers will be well aware of what is around them and know the indignities they live with
