Catatan
Mrs Morton was an 82-year-old woman with ovarian cancer metastatic to the lung,
liver, and peritoneum with massive ascites diagnosed 1 year ago. She had undergone
many cycles of chemotherapy but stopped chemo several months ago due to progres-
sion of disease and increasing fatigue. Mrs Morton was living at home with her
daughter, son-in-law, and three grandchildren. A few days earlier, she had stopped
eating and drinking. She became sleepier and spent all of her time in bed. On the
morning of admission, Mrs Morton’s daughter awoke to find that her mother was not
able to speak or even open her eyes and was moaning and breathing fast. Feeling
panicked, her daughter called 911. The ambulance arrived within a few minutes.
They found Mrs Morton hypotensive, tachypneic, tachycardic, hypoxic, and in
respiratory distress. They asked about advance directives, but were told that Mrs
Morton had not completed one. They started an IV, gave fluids, administered oxygen,
and rushed Mrs Morton to the hospital.
