Now, As I Was Thanking Someone Who Came to Mum's Funeral...
And I expressed my doubts about the care and the fact we'd missed the pneumonia and she told me that her Mother had died of it and she too wondered if she'd missed something and found herself "Beating herself up!" And then she was told that Dr's had even missed it.
It was only discovered when a Post Mortum was held and it appears that there is a type of pneumonia that can be only diagnosed when a PM is held it's viral so perhaps it can be missed even by the best medical person...when I think of some of the coughs of some of the patients on the hospital ward in March with Mum that were so much worse...it is what could be called a "Silent Killer!"
Does this give me some closure? I don't know...perhaps!
