Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
My father is 89 and a stroke patient. He has no use of his limbs and cannot speak. He is on hospice care. He was diagnosed two days ago with pneumonia and will receive no antibiotics. He will receive oxygen, morphine and cough medicine. Can he survive without treatment and if not, how long will he live?
