when an old person dies is it like falling asleep? or is it painful?
when old people die in a hospital bed in movies they dont seem to be in pain, but usually try to cling on to life and have trouble saying their final words as if they were out of breath.

I know this may be a hard topic to discuss, but your answers will be greatly appreciated. Please be honest, I have found the truth to be far more interesting than a lie.

And then if you would be so kind, will you tell me how you view life now?

Thanks

After collecting the blood sample from the patient using the vacutainer system, how is the needle removed from the tube holder?? Because soome of the labs reuse these tube holders

Is it done by hand or only by the shaps container...also, once the needle is released from the tube holder, can it be reused again???

The reason I am asking this is that whenever I go to get my blood drawn they use this vacutainer system on me....and since the needles dont come wrapped, I am always worried that the nurse might release the needle and not put it back in the sharps container (by mistake) but instead outting it with the unused needles and then reuse it again by mistake.......it always gets me paranoid.....is this possible?

About 5 months ago i started having problems breathing, When i take a breath i can breathe in but it doesnt feel as though i am if you know what i mean of course as soon as this happened i went to the hospital on tons of machines and came back as chest inflamation or such and after taking pills it got better but was still there so i went to my family doctor and got chest xrays which turned up nothing. So my question is do you guys have any clue what could be up because its not really bad but its so annoying. Any answers would be appreciated.

I know someone who had been addicted to cocaine for about 10 years....was clean for 2-3 years.. and now has admittted she is addicted to vicadins.......she has been off them 8 days. Has entered treatment at a clinic.....I'm curious if those are as bad as being addicted to cocaine, alcohol, cigarettes,.....etc.?
I know they probably aren't as strong as some drugs, but her life has been affected by something lately, how does being addicted to a pain med affect you....how do you act? ...I've seen w/drawal when people haven't had a cigarette....drink....pot....but was curious what you do when you can't get a painkiller....what does it do to a person...when they where maybe not even in pain......what's the addiction to? how hard is it going to be for her to get off them?
