[QUOTE="pasajes4, post: 631699, member: 12856"] I watched my father starve to death for a month. He had Parkinson disease and could no longer swallow. His shaking was so violent that even with a feeding tube he was unable to receive enough nourishment. It was inhumane. He died in a VA hospital. We were there round the clock. The nursing staff only came in every 4 hours to take vitals and check to see if he was still producing urine. He was aware of what was going on until the last day of his life. [/QUOTE]
