There is something to letting the hopeless die or aiding it a tad. My father in terminal cancer ripped out his iv dozens of times. He was suffering and wanted to end it. He was past help and in pain. But if I were to do anything I would have ended up beside Dr. K. There are thousands like him every day in need of something. Some go quick -- some agonizingly slow. They have a lot of psychological suffering as well, waiting for the end. Just about every Cancer sufferer I know who was looking at the end talked about wishing it were over faster. I don't know any who took the quicker option. It is hard to do too. It is an old debate. No easy answers. Easy to imagine you know, but no matter how close to the topic, we cannot put ourselves in their shoes finally. I don't think Dr. K was a criminal. He certainly did not deserve 8 years in the hoosegow. He was trying to help people. It was sanctimonious to sit in judgement of him. The people who did have turned their back on getting better painkillers to those in need, and millions of person years in needless suffering as well. EC<:-}
