> power, eh.Do you think you could maybe find that source of info again? And as many details as possible? Name of drug, name of doc, date and references would be great! Somethings just not quite right. As I have been told by solicitors when I was thinking of complaining about the treatment I got 1st time I was intubated, they never destroy CCTV. Think about it. If it was found that they had destroyed such footage, questions would start to get asked.
Within the last two days before discharge, I asked what happened to the guy intubated in the bed to my right. I'll call him David for now (not his real name). Nobody knew, but I think alcohol put him there so maybe he went onto IC ward,or was sent to detox or rehab. I wanna find him & visit him for a quick chat...
