Is Mercy Killings By Doctors Really A Mercy? by KenyanNigerian: 10:29am On Sep 04, 2015 |
THIS IS WHAT I READ IN SOME RECENT POST “Doctors take an oath to protect life and not to end it. Even if a patient asked for euthanasia and the doctor administered it, it is nothing short of assisting a patient commit suicide, which is wrong,” said Mokgokong who heads Neurosurgery department at the University of Pretoria. So my question is. Should mercy killing be allowed. I'm thinking of a case where a poor family has someone in a hospital for years in a comma, should they keep sentencing themselves to poverty or just pull the plug? And what would you prefer for your family if you were the one in the comma? YOU CAN READ MORE HERE http://www.kenyans.co.ke/news/doctors-urged-stop-mercy-killing

I'm neither a doctor nor a medical personnel but I'd rather be gone than be a burden on the living or to languish in pains. Peeps that see it as suicide for the patient fail to see the torture part. As in real torture! But this is just my take sha. 1 Like |
