Hi I need clarity my mum just past away. She had suspected lung infection. She was 86 years old. She was barely eating. But she had build up drink OK. The doctors put her on a syringe driver I sat by her bedside day and night while she struggled to breath until her heart stopped. It's the worst experience I've witnessed not only because it's my mum. It's the way she died. I want to no if the morphine is just for pain why did my mum's body was limp like a person in a coma as soon as she had the morphine. I feel they overdosed her and killed her slowly.wasn't allowed to feed her or give her water. So she would have died anyway of thirst and food. I had to suffer her gasping for every breath for 4 days with the morphine. I was her carer for 3 years. And all I can see is my mother dying in agony yes agony all her body she couldn't move apart from her eye lids once every few minutes. And eyes open and mouth open all the time. I want people honest opinion there was no x-ray done on my mum.
