From what I read the other day a representative at the hospital indicated at times like these it is basically at their discretion whether they will make big efforts to move such a case to a home were they can be cared for there, but as I read it they were unsure whether to offer that due to the fact so much abuse has been given to the staff throughout. Not just obviously from outside but what goes on inside from the family.
People saying they don't understand why they don't just let him go home is also quite infuriating. Who needs experts hey. Doctors take an oath to give as much care as they can, the worry is that if they take him away from a hospital to someones living room where 100% care can not be observed and something happens, what then? If there are seizures, or complications of which there can be hundreds and more suffering occurs it would be on their heads.
Doctors at times like these would take those risks on and possibly let the patient go home, but when those risks are also met with the abuse they will take and all the complications that come with that, I'm not surprised they have great concerns to do this.
I think in the end the doctors and staff of that hospital being fantastic, caring people will more than likely say, ok, we will take these risks and give you peace, even if it means more worry for us.
