What is death following aspiration pneumonia like? - aspiration pneumonia diagram
My father is 80 years old, very sick and had a feeding tube for several months. He wants to remove the feeding tube and continue through the mouth, but not swallow, tests, and almost certainly in contact with aspiration pneumonia, which he understands. Has anyone had the experience of someone and do not die from aspiration pneumonia? It differs from regular pneumonia? I do not want it morbid, but my father is ready to die and do not want this huge scale. But I would like some information on what this decision in terms of pain and struggle. Thank you in advance.

I took care of people with aspiration pneumonia and its terrible for the patient and the caregiver. Slowly drowning in their own fluids that accumulate in the lungs, causing pneumonia. I never comment on leaving the tube. This is a painful death than the slow death by suffocation. If they get the hose into the infant formula, would be the first step for him in the way of food. Note that the most probable drowning. Thus, in the food chain of the lungs and drown the food is drawn into the lungs. So if what we want is for him, but are slowly and painfully.
