Be assured that I greatly admire your humility. I wish more in the medical profession had your attitude towards lifesaving measures.<br /><br />I know that it is really hard to take in certain situations, such as your young son having to go on if you would die sometime soon, but one of things that our Heavenly Father has allowed and enabled me to understand is that physical death is not a curse upon those who truly are one of His children by faith. In fact, it is actually a blessing. For their time of suffering is over.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16349087080262856079noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5558279154584900089.post-13353946397217057812011-02-18T05:44:47.116-06:002011-02-18T05:44:47.116-06:00Interesting and insightful addition to the post. I...Interesting and insightful addition to the post. I so agree with you in that there is much more to us than what meets our physical sight.<br /><br />I've not been with many patients as they've died. I've been with many that have come in (for lack of a better term) dead. It's really hard to say that I've ever differentiated the look that's present in their eyes at the time. It's usually just a blank stare. <br /><br />What let's me know that our resources are limited are the outcomes.<br /><br />The same life saving measures, as in medications, ventilations and chest compressions, shocking the heart, etc. can be applied the exact same way to two people with the same medical history and around the same age.<br /><br />One may be resuscitated after several minutes. And the other may not respond at all. At the point the code is called and the patient is pronounced.<br /><br />We like to think that we "snatch" those that make it back from the brink of death. When in actuality it just wasn't their appointed time.<br /><br />When that day comes there's nothing that can keep us here.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02577780679140276988noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5558279154584900089.post-72611743437729679722011-02-18T04:30:32.779-06:002011-02-18T04:30:32.779-06:00Simply outstanding, my dear Roschelle!!!

I am fairly comfortable with the soul being our spiritual body as opposed to our physical one, but it gets muddled in my mind past that. Nonetheless, I am very confident of the fact that there is much more to us than what naturally comes to meet our physical sight.<br /><br />Being a RN, you might find what I was told by an old girlfriend interesting (if not familiar). For she was a nurse, who had been by the side of several when they physically died, and she said that the look in their eyes told where they were headed. For some looked excited while others had a look of pure terror, and none had what could be described as looking at nothingness.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16349087080262856079noreply@blogger.com
