Cat O'Falk 3,290 Posted May 2, 2016 I understand when there's a list/thread/whatever for famous people but in a year we'll be adding ourselves to the list since a bunch of irrelevant non celebrities are getting attention here which is pointless....famous doctors? I know one, Josef Mengele......I'll make a thread for my great grandma who's 88 and bedridden for 10 years or maybe her doctor needs a thread Josef Mengele wasn't famous; he was infamous.

Famous is used to describe something or someone well known for their good qualities, whilst infamous is used to describe something or someone well known for their bad qualities.

Death Impends 7,979 Posted May 9, 2016 It makes me smile seeing her still be able to play outside with her nieces and nephews. Even though she knows her end is very soon she's still making the most of what time is left. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sean 6,330 Posted May 26, 2016 On the latest Dr Granger tweets, Albumin count 19 usually suggests liver failure. Poor woman. Is it awful of me to hope she just goes really quickly now?She is clearly a lovely person who is really suffering and is only going to suffer more the longer she goes on.I just hope she slips away in her sleep soon whilst she still has her faculties.God deadpooling is a shit hobby at times! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Not totally sure if they make me feel more or less sympathetic in this horrible situation This is not the sort of pick I like but she is a Doctor and she is very aware of what is happening to her. Does that make it easier or harder? I think this is her way of dealing with it. Respect to her and it is very sad. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
