You missed the point Klaser, it was to become fully alive again, not to cling to the bitter end: < Come to the US where we will put a tube in your every orifice and draw out your life to the bitter painfull end if you like > True believers, both doctors and patients, would be not worried at all about passing from the unjust, cruel, world to the idyllic Utopia of beyond death. I'd prefer a doctor who really wanted to fix things, than merely ease the way out.

My experience of doctors and non-Hodgkins lymphoma was that they were more interested in their cash flow and processes than actually saving lives. Rituxan was not offered as front line treatment along with CHOP, and in fact was specifically not allowed and illegal, though it's now used straight away as was obvious it should have been. Thousands died because of the delay in accepting the obvious. In NZ, even if a person would pay for the treatment themselves, it would not be allowed as it wouldn't be fair to the person in the next bed who couldn't afford the treatment [the doctor told me].

<I do not know all the answers MQ.I respect your beliefs and how you choose to run your life. > That's not actually true - doctors do NOT allow people to run their own lives. They maintain control over the essentials of life and do NOT allow people to decide for themselves. Would you really hand over your prescription pad to the people whose lives are in the firing line?
