At the time I was also watching Soaps and I saw the care and adoration they received and wished it for myself. So even though I knew the stories where fake, I had to stop watching because they where influencing the way I thought. Also when I took a step back and thought about the people in my life I realized that I was loved by them, and more than I expected.
It actually took some doing volunteer work to help me realize that life isn't all about me.

LOL, I love some of these comments. You all crack me up.
Hospice many times gives moraphine to terminally ill patients. I promise you it does ease the suffering. My prayers are with you during this time.
I have become physically dependent on MS Contin which is the same type of med as oxycontin only Morphine is the narcotic instead of oxcycondone. I was prescribed this as a pain control medication for 2 years at which time they diagnosed my condition which required surgery. After surgery I now feel I don't need this strong pain med any longer and my other pain can be handled by a weaker pain med like percocet.
are there any telephone support groups available
I read your other post and I was gonna respond to that when I saw this one. Hospice and doctors are concerned in providing comfort for the terminally ill patient. I've actually worked with Hospice ppl and they are very nice caring ppl. There aren't any specific guidelines that I know about, however here is some information that you can check out. Also if you google anything, you will get alot of hits, not all the time but most of the time.
Yep, Florida is right. I am 11 days no f'in patch and I am STILL not well. I won't go into detail but let's suffice it to say that even freaking Immodium won't help my ***. I've come this far and there is no going back now. I just am SOOOOOOO sick of this crap. No Dr. that cares. I am sick of having to be in the house because when I leave, my stomach starts rumbling. Today I have promised the kids that we are going to see Curious George.
I am under a lot of stress (caring for my 88-year old mother, my husband has had two open-heart surgeries and my little dog is terminally ill) and I am not sleeping well (never have been a sound sleeper).
Approximately six years ago I was diagnosed with Posterior Vitreous Detachment in both eyes and the "symptoms" nearly make me crazy!! My problems are significantly noticeable, I have a seriously hard time dealing with bright or natural light, but my night vision is crystal clear.
My 7 yr old pit mix has his entire life thought he was part goat, we broke him of the habit of eating everything, lately he has terrible gas and is crying when he poops.
I did that and ate something and took coolvshowers and so far so good fever is down. He checked my ears and throat and my nose and said everything looked fine. I have been in and out of hospitals with my mom she is terminally ill with stage four lung cancer and has mrsa in her lungs as well as pnuemonia.. so maybe I caught a bug from someone there. I'm sure if I had an outbreak in my mouth doc wouldn't have said everything looked good ...
Yet every week is a constant struggle with him, he is overly preocupied about his daily stools, urine, color, shape and frequency. He goes on the internet all the time and reads the countless blogs and stories about people who are really infected and he identifies himself with them. I get very upset and frustrated, he doesn't sleep well, he wakes me up crying because he is certain that he is terminally ill.
It has been 23 days since my curiosity led me to make a stupid mistake outside my marriage. My wife has been unavailable for sex for several weeks because of her caring for a terminally ill relative, and my sex drive simply got out of control. Now my guilt and concern for my wife's safety is paramount. I received unprotected oral sex and gave unprotected oral sex. The guy had some pre-*** present at first, but that seemed to disappear before I gave him about a minute of oral sex.
Honey if they are giving you chemotherapy then they are poisoning you. However, the crack isn't doing you any favors either. If you are terminally ill and there isn't hope of recovery, just make yourself comfortable. Honestly, if I were dying, I would just take whatever in the he!! makes me happy so that people don't remember me as a bitchy mess. I am so sorry you have to go through this. I really hope you have a support system at home.
Good Morning, i am going out of my mind with worry, i had my triple test screening test taken on 19 Oct 09 in Turkey, i have settled there with my partner, i had to return to UK on 20 Oct 09 to nurse my terminally ill father, i have recieved a copy of my results by email from my OB and she said i am high risk, please could anyone help me understand the readings: AFP 34,49 ng/ml, uE3 0,29 ng/ml, HCG 31,167 ng/ml, Tr.21 risk at term 1:100, Age risk at term 1:323.
Patients rely on their physician and pharmacists to assure they have the correct medication and dosage. Often seniors or very ill individuals do not pay attention to the dose or even the medication when the picking up the prescription. My pharmacy does not often mention the dosage. They will just say, "This is a refill on your B12. Do you have any questions?" ...or... "This is a new prescription. Your doctor wants you to inject this B12 every month. Do you have any questions?
I'm on day 4 and doing great! No w/d's at all and I'm NEVER looking back!
