Hi my nan was diagnosed with terminal brain tumour in February and was told she only had weeks to live. She has wowed all the nurses and doctors and is still here with us but she is bed ridden and not really with it, we cant hold a conversation with her or anything but she has been eating and drinking fine. Today McMillan put a syringe driver in as they said liquids were getting into her lungs from medicine and drinks. We have now been told shes not allowed to eat or drink anything. I understand the drinking if it's getting into her lungs although she is very thirsty but why is she not allowed to be fed? Surely this is just going to kill her off as she wont be getting no food or drink now? Sorry for long post just hoping for some answers.
