My Aunt smoked all her life.
She's 71 and now in hospital.

They don't know if it's lung cancer but the doctors said she'll be dead within the next 10 or so days.

She has late stage COPD
She's not smoking now, what are the chances she would come out of this?
She's using oxygen to breathe about 4 times a day.

inb4 ask a doctor.
Doctors are a socialist/corporatist medical cartel and wrong about shit 50% of the time.

There's no direct signals they can look at that says your exact time of life remaining. They make guesses off how badly things have progressed.

If she dies in 30 days does that make the doctors wrong? Technically, yes.
If she dies tomorrow does that make the doctors wrong? Technically, yes.

It's easy to rack up the count of doctors being wrong if you want to.

So you're saying she's ignored advice of doctors for over 30 years (that's how long doctors have known for a fact smoking is bad and have advised against it), resulting in her current situation and now you're following her lead and willing to ask idiots on 4chan rather than ask a doctor? Sounds pretty stupid to me. Maybe you can be the turning point in your family tree and start listening to people who are learned on their subject instead of eating guava tree bark to cure cancer.

No, smoking is still bad because there is scientific evidence against it.

>and willing to ask idiots on 4chan rather than ask a doctor?
Government Doctors are a medical cartel that don't give a single fuck about science or medicine.

>Maybe you can be the turning point in your family tree and start listening to people who are learned on their subject
Bullshit.
Kill your fucking self.
Maybe I should train my kin to think for themselves and to actually accept science instead of believing whatever an anti-scientific cartel spews out.

>instead of eating guava tree bark
Your entire family is going to die young because you were too brainwashed to research outside of the mainstream.

anon I hope your aunt will survive this, just stay by her side.

I understand your accusations against the medical cartel and I do agree that their attitude towards actual science is apathetic and most folks worship their brabble. However I believe it should be best for you to REAALLY do the independant research you mentioned and plant the seed of truthful inquiry in your descendancy.

This. Your aunt is a fool for smoking for so long -- even though the tobacco industry has targeted our weakest and most vulnerable members of society since the 20's: women. But this doesnt mean she does not deserve compassion in her final days.

Doctors have been wrong about this sort of thing before, but that is usually with regards to cancer and the like, in my experience. If they say she has about 10 days to live, I would take that at face value, especially if she is dying of COPD.

Stand by her side and make sure feels loved during this time. You wouldn't want to die on a hospital bed alone, would you?

Your anger for the medical establishment is probably being exacerbated by the grief you're experiencing. But try to remember that these are not all corrupt big-pharma drones and that your aunt needs your love, not your rage.

That means she has literally physically destroyed her lungs to the point that over 50% of her original lung capacity is gone. They can not replace oxygen or get the CO2 out.
The membranes no longer function, the lungs have sagged and are leaning on the diaphragm, the bottom of her ribs will no longer be curved because of this, this mean that effectively she can not breath in and out properly anymore.

Not only is the delicate lung tissue now unable to perform its function, the muscles are no longer capable of making the breathing motions, furthermore she has likely suffered one or more perforations at this point.

The only difference between normal water and hydrogen water is that hydrogen water has free hydrogen gas mixed in with it.
You could inhale hydrogen gas and it would have the same effect on your cells, it would just go through your lungs first.

So I'm the guy you originally responded to, and your posts are hilarious. You were almost correct by seeming to "believe" in science, but then you flew off the handle by claiming that every single doctor is a government shill and then when I made up that shit about guava tree bark, you literally responded by telling me that I should drink hydrogen water. Dude, please read what you wrote again from an outside perspective and you'll laugh at what you said to me.

Most doctors are not paid by the government, in fact I know many who despise Obamacare simply because it forced *some* of them to pay higher insurance. These are regular people who studied medicine for years and opened their own practice to help people. It would behoove you to listen to them in the same way it would be the correct choice to listen to someone like Einstein (who happened to work for the US gov) on matters of physics. The very last thing you want to do is go down to your local hippy food market and listen to some idiot spew garbage about how she cured cancer with tea leaves and coconut oil--that goes the same for anybody who gives you medical advice here on 4chan. Honestly, I'd go to /fit/ for medical advice before I came to /sci/. Some of those people have experience in fucking their shit up pretty bad.

tl;dr Avoid buzzwords like "hydrogen water" or "green*whatever*", go see doctor who owns his/her own practice if you don't trust hospitals.
