Hi
Sitting at the end of Dad's hospital bed. He's resting nicely. So I'm not touching him. He had metastatic lung cancer, exacerbation of COPD and chest infection all impacting his lungs on admission so basically no hope for him. He's been on 15l of oxygen for 3 days now. Since he started the syringe driver, he has deteriorated. In the last 12 hours he started pulling his mask off saying let me go. It is the most distressing think I've ever seen. Was this him or the drugs???
His breathing has slowed down from 24 resp rate when conscious to 12 now. Was 20 a few hours ago. I really hope he just caves in and gives up x
