Discussion»Statements»Rosie's Corner» Giving birth alone and dying alone is the incredibly sad reality. The beginning of life and the end of life alone. For how long?
My first thought was: If you give birth, wouldn't there be two people? The mother and child.
Other than that ... I'm not quite sure what you mean, Rosie.
"sad reality"? Some prefer to be alone, by themselves.
On another hand, being surrounded by others doesn't mean you aren't alone. Just ask any kid who has been bullied, while others looked on. Or anyone who feels different from the group.
For how long? For as long as there are individuals.
You can shove that LOL where the sun don't shine Walt! No one is allowed in the room with the mother. No one is allowed in the room with the person who is dying Walt. You LOL about this? I find that extremely offensive. Imagine a loved one of yours DYING ALL ALONE? Or your wife giving birth to your child ALL ALONE? Seriously GET A GRIP. Thank you for your reply. This is not the best of times Walt. This is the Worst of times. Control yourself. It may come for you and yours. Then you might understand why being ALONE when you die is not anything to laugh about. Devil's Advocate be dam*ed! It is going to get a lot worse so buckle up and serious up and staighten up and FLY RIGHT. For god's sake!
As I said, I didn't know what you were talking about, Rosie.
Most of the facilities (hospitals, hospice, nursing facilities) here still allow people in the room. They just have to check in more carefully. (Do you have a fever? Have you been out of the country? etc) And if they have symptoms, they are not allowed (of course) and told to see their doctor.
Are California facilities not allowing visitors, at all?
btw - I personally prefer being alone, to having some Bible-thumper preaching at me or saying my faith not being strong is the reason I'm sick. Those arse-wipes can walk off the edge of the Grand Canyon, and let their faith support them.
