What you described is fairly common and I am surprised that they let you stay in the room at all. Kind of reminds me of the scenes on the TV show ER where the loved ones are allowed to stay in the room, ask questions and basically see everything that is going on. It's just plain not a good idea.
I'm happy that this ordeal is now over and I hope that both of you find answers for your current problems real soon.
