Anyway, in the latest iteration of the phenomenon I call "ever again" (in practice, the "N" is silent), one Baroness Warnock, a medical ethicist, says:
If you're demented, you're wasting people's lives – your family's lives – and you're wasting the resources of the National Health Service.And if we think that attitude is demented...?
Vanderleun quotes one Orrin Judd observing pithily:
ever notice how "medical ethics" is nothing more than justifying murder?
Contrast that with this --the tale of a local paterfamilias (I know one of his daughters-in-law somewhat) who died to save his son with Down Syndrome.
