I don't know what's better, staying at home and hope you survive or go to the hospital and die alone. I've read more than one account of people saying no one survives that gets put on a ventilator. if ventilators don't help people survive, why do they bother? what's your son say about it? is there any treatment at all for this? or do they just monitor you if you go to the hospital?ellen abbotthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00535475792150335186noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9107151958453669111.post-45899968593686921682020-04-11T13:29:42.497-04:002020-04-11T13:29:42.497-04:00A new vacuum cleaner is very exciting!
