    - the brother who was involved was asked to leave, and he complied without a problem. - tRuMaN Apr 12, 08:22 3
      - trying to find the stories that say this -- (link) - tRuMaN Apr 12, 08:25
      - This is sounding a lot more like what the hospital reported. - TWuG Apr 12, 08:25 1
        
        this is the hospital's response (i think it is in my link above) - tRuMaN Apr 12, 08:27
    - it seems at least the brother was asked to leave. it's unclear what happened to him after that. -- nm - mafic Apr 12, 08:22
- Straight couples never experience interference from family in care decisions? - TWuG Apr 12, 08:09 19
  - Put it this way - there was a disruptive altercation, okay. But why were the people without POA allowed to stay? -- nm - Max Apr 12, 08:42
  - Nope, never. -- nm - spamlet Apr 12, 08:13
  - [deleted] 16
    - Did you read tRU's summary of what seems to have happened? - spamlet Apr 12, 08:15 15

        no, but there's still animus that leads to the same kind of he said/she said arguments over who's in charge. - mafic Apr 12, 08:32 1
        
        Ex: Terri Schiavo -- nm - TWuG Apr 12, 08:37
        
        That seems to be a needlessly restrictive reading of the situation. Families fight. Why they fight is almost beside the point when that fight - TWuG Apr 12, 08:27 1

        The hospital isn't letting in a disruptive spouse. The spouse was fighting with the family before staff got involved. - TWuG Apr 12, 08:20 2
        
        [deleted] 1
        
        Then I truly do not understand your point. - TWuG Apr 12, 08:42
        
        no he isnt. you are stuck with a narrow view that because the patient, and his partner are gay, this must all have happened because of that. - tRuMaN Apr 12, 08:19 3
        
        So your retort is "You're being purposefully acute". I like this. Funny. :) -- nm - Beryllium Apr 12, 08:39

    - It was likely groiny... -- nm - Mel Profit Apr 12, 08:03 1
