Child is never expected to get better, only worse. BTW...it's in Canada. What the **** do you care? All you're trying to do is start a argument on here. Get lost. Go back to trolling your nose right up Dons asshole, where you usually are. |

I just hope they do what is best for the kid and to hell with the rest of them. But admit, I am not sure what that is. Glad I don't have to decide this one, pirates is easy, not so in this case. -- Socialism is a great ideal as long as someone else pays for it.

A lot of myths about the two systems, both sides of the fence. But no one listens to those with experience in both.... -- Socialism is a great ideal as long as someone else pays for it.

Don't you think insurance companies make the same decisions? If you don't have pockets as deep a Croesus, the hospital is going to go with "the payer," whether that be the government or the insurance company. By your own quotations.... The child was in a "persistent vegetative state" and "the couple has accepted their baby boy's inevitable death." It seems the litigation was whether the child should suffer to death in the home or stay in the hospital with professional care. A "death panel" seems to be a meaningless concept when all parties present agree that the child is terminally ill. To me, all of this extraordinary effort at keeping a persons biological functions intact seems terrifyingly close to Dr. Frankenstein's fascinations. I'm not signing on to Kevorkian's principles, but quality of life, I believe, REALLY means something....... Professional care is to leave the kid in an incubator and wait until kid dies. Seems a bit cold and heartless. If the kid goes home with the parents the parents will do all that is necessary to make the kid comfortable by giving it love and attention until the kid passes away. Which environment would you rather die in? My daughter spend 2 months in a Neo-natal ICU. There is no way I would want a child's last days, hours, moments on earth spend in that environment. |
