Robert Lesser: Dr. Hirsch

Quotes 

• Dr. Hirsch : [1:16:22]  We have here Mrs. Jessie Bowman age 77. She's the mother of the astronaut who died. She's been at the nursing home for six months. Four weeks ago she collapsed in her room. She was comatose when we got to her. She was worked up and found to have had suffered a massive CVA involving her left parietal and frontal lobes. The CAT scans show the massive bleeding. She has remained comatose since her admission and is unable to have spontaneous respiration. No response to stimuli. She has had two episodes of pneumonia and is febrile. We give her intravenous antibiotics. for ten days. Range of motion four times a day, and she's turned every thirty minutes, that's about it.
