ICU nurse here. My patients are never in good shape if they are with me. I can chime in a bit here.
If I or the physician is worried that the patient doesn't have long, we will be damn sure to notify the patient's family. Obviously, due to COVID, we allow only 1 member into the ICU but we want to give that chance to the family.
But there is nothing wrong with leaving your loved one at the hospital for a short time. That's what we are for.
In this case, sepsis is dangerous but it is treatable.

I wouldn't want my wife to see me like that and would probably tell her to go away and remind her to take care of herself and fallow the rules I set out for her coz they are in place for her health
and my wife being the workaholic she is would dive into her work to avoid thinking about it
She has a family to support. The kids can be there. We know not the particulars, such as what was said or expected, amongst the Family. Given this, one should be careful not to assume and jump to an unwarranted conclusion. I am without judgment at this time.
