I'm in this situation with my mother. Often, it is the family that will prove to be the most difficult adversary. For instance, my mom is currently "overdosing" on "blood thinners". Having awful systems but my sister will not make any decisions until the doctor approves it. I tell her, you are mistaken if you think anticoagulants dissolve blood clots. They do not. I tell her, mom would be better off taking fibrinolytics and proteolytics but she quickly and sternly shakes her head and dismisses what I say. Better to poison mom to death in an insane belief that it is the only way to save her (and I am the one caring for her 24/7) then to try something that has little to no side effects and actually does destroy clots. It is difficult not to feel crazy in this medical death march when you know there are better ways to live. We all will die one day but why have we accepted such an ugly and barbaric path to that gate?
You are so right. They do not do what the public thinks they do. I would love to see an analysis of the sale of all “blood thinners” and related products before and after the clot shot rollout. My intuition tells me that sales have skyrocketed. Maybe Steve Kirsch could do something like that.
It is barbaric — a very apt word to describe it. So much superstition and and so much naked profiteering from families enduring difficult circumstances.
It’s shameful and a disgrace. We are nowhere near “civilized”, and going backwards alarmingly quickly.
