[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I predict a lot more euthanasia.[/quote] YOU do not get to make the decision about when and how you die. THEY make that decision for you. It’s the ultimate expression of freedom, really. /s[/quote] In theory yes. I’ve had two family members die in hospice and my experience is that it’s a hair breadth away from euthanasia. Basically the ER doctors will suggest a discharge to hospice rather than any sort of aggresssjvr care. Hospice will then take them off all the medications that keep them gojng. Hospice will then recommend the HAM sandwich — haldol, morphine and Ativan — to keep the patient calm. They will gtadually increase the dosage on that. What elderly person is going to survive that combination? I’m not complaining, I’m just saying that there is more room for euthanasia than most people think. [/quote]
