Is his primary care physician able to go to bat for you? and can you get a homecare doctor to come attend him? in our case when there was a need to get Andy to the hospital, his homecare physician did all the arrangements, fixed up with a doctor in the hospital, not the ER doctor, to attend ready, and generally was there for us. It sounds as if something of that kind is an urgent need for your family, too.<br /><br />Meanwhile, I do feel for you, and you know I have been in similar situations. Hold on!<br /><br />BoudBoudhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00641013916263271948noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24429902.post-8192304291150499992010-09-24T08:11:09.445-04:002010-09-24T08:11:09.445-04:00that is absolutely outrageous!!

You should call the social services at the hospital and throw it back at them. That is what they are there for to help people. Gas medicine - bah!<br /><br />Do you have hospice services up there? I have been gone so long now have no idea what there is up there. It sounds like it may be getting near to that now.<br /><br />Hugs to you all.<br /><br />FredaFredaBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08000510495713705938noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24429902.post-26220502351581585652010-09-23T18:50:34.611-04:002010-09-23T18:50:34.611-04:00You have every right to rant; there is no reason a...You have every right to rant; there is no reason a Dr. should be able so say he doesn't want to do something that needs doing for a patient.

Don't regret a minute of it.<br />Do you have a Community Care in your area. Ours has its own emergency transport system. They may be able to help. Also an order from the Dr. to the Ambulance Service for him to be transported to his hospital will also work. To bad the local guy is being so difficult..poor you. <br />Ranting helps...lol. <br /><br />Judi BJudiBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12239557737941249798noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24429902.post-50385627677143042802010-09-23T15:38:21.306-04:002010-09-23T15:38:21.306-04:00Its hard when you don't know where to turn.
