- pwned1 8y agoI don't think she specifically requested morphine, just that she no longer be treated. I'm honestly not sure how the decision-making process worked. It was kinda odd to me because no one said that she was going to be completely knocked out for the rest of her few days. If I had known exactly how it was going to work, I would have asked to talk to her more before they initiated the process. But I got there the day after she requested the cessation of care and she was out, never to be conscious again. She was then moved to hospice with a locked-up morphine machine and we all sat there for several days, watching her die. To call it vengeance would be inaccurate.
