She had breast cancer, it went into remission and then metastasized and spread to her bone structure. Diagnosis is terminal, prognosis is 5-7 years. It is what it is.
She goes for checkups at the local hospital fairly regularly. This time, my mother took her just so she'd have company and to catch up on family things. I asked my mother what the conditions of the hospital were like, since we're being told that they're simply overflowing and bursting at the seams.
She said "Other than the emergency room, it was empty. We had to go from one end to the other for various scans and tests, and it was like we owned the place. No one there."
So, where are all the patients that are dying on ventilators? We're just overflowing according to the government, but this information corroborates a story a friend and former coworker told me about one of the larger hospitals here in the city - quiet as a mouse with no one around.
It is what it is.
