Janice, is this any different than organ donation, hacking the organs out of vegatative patients so that others may live?How much worse is it than keeping someone mecanically alive who has ZERO chance of becoming conscious again and is constantly invaded by needles, tubes and catheters in every orifice possible? Or filling people with experimental chemo only to watch them live in and out of hospitals and then ultimately die horribly from secondary complications from the therapy?Yet we do all these acts, because we can and we're told its ok..... If pher 02 potentially saves two people at least, isn't it worth it? Medical ethics is not a black-and- white situation.Each case is weighed with the risk versus reward for what you do..and you live with what you can handle emotionally. I can handle getting informed consent from a family to try this drug as easily as I could get consent for organ donation because I feel that it can benefit a lot more than one person in the future.
