There are cases where family members are specifically injured only to end up in the same hospital where their loved one is treated. Therefore, the Government is requested to exclude and allow access to extremely serious coronavirus-free patients.
The last meeting with my mother took place at the end of October. In December I managed to see my mother in a coffin. This is the experience of Jurga, who lives in Germany. Last year, during the spring quarantine, Jurga asked her respectable mothers to stay home and not go anywhere so she could see their children and grandchildren after the pandemic subsided. However, a woman with dementia and heart disease is deteriorating. In the fall, the woman found herself in a nursing home and it was forbidden to visit a seriously ill mother, Jurga and other relatives, although neither of them was sick with coronavirus.
“It just came to our knowledge then. And the last few months have passed, even without COVID-19, neither she, nor her children, nor her adorable grandchildren have been able to meet. And I couldn’t say goodbye either, they let the brother in for exactly a minute, practically in the astronaut’s spacesuit. I couldn’t touch her, even though she wanted to hug and kiss her, “television director Jurga Klimaitė-Riebling told LNK News.
Jurga remembers one of her mother’s last encounters with her grandchildren, so the quarantine has yet to be announced.
“Then I saw how much the man felt, because he really was the most important thing for her: the grandchildren. I no longer knew at that time what year it was now, what season it was. But when I saw the girls, I started asking my grandmother such simple questions: Aren’t you as cold as at school? “Said the woman.
Jurga is convinced that if a serious patient and their relatives do not have coronavirus, goodbye should be allowed.
“If you already see that this is the end, then what you are already saving there. I heard stories that the woman was happy to have suffered an injury and ended up in the same hospital where her mother was. If she wishes to inflict physical trauma on herself Go to the same hospital. Your mental health is really marginal, “he said.
Vilija Blinkevičiūtė, Member of the European Parliament (EP), was in a similar situation.
“Personally, I have felt it because last year my mother was very ill. And I couldn’t really attend, but my great mother, who is 93 years old, recovered, recovered, now we live happily together. But there are many cases in which people cannot visit ”, said the politician.
That is why V. Blinkevičiūtė asks the Government to make an exception and allow serious patients to be carried out. After all, it is possible to travel abroad with a negative coronavirus test. So why not visit seriously ill noncommunicable diseases?
“Perhaps you can be asked to take a test, perhaps you have already been vaccinated. This would not create any dangerous situation for people to say goodbye or visit loved ones in hospitals. Furthermore, it is necessary to pay attention to the fact that all medical personnel have been vaccinated, ”said V. Blinkevičiūtė.
The situation also seems sensitive to Prime Minister Ingrida Šimonyte. She herself cared for a seriously ill mother who died a couple of years ago. According to her, visiting critically ill patients without COVID-19 should not be subject to the same strict bans as it is today.
“I understand the problem very well. As a man who, himself, has worked as a nurse’s assistant in a hospital for the second time in his life because I know for sure how much work it takes to care for a seriously ill patient. I would very much like to believe that when the epidemic subsides, it will be possible to find some intermediate solutions, be it tests or more human vaccination, ”said the Prime Minister.
Currently, only terminally ill patients are allowed to visit.
