please pay attention...

".Doctors under the western system of medicine would not knowingly be permitted to carry out procedures certain to kill the patient"

NO doctors, even in Singapore, were 'certain' this would be fatal...they discovered halfway thru that if MIGHT be...! And the patients had said.."do not stop....do your best, but we do not wish to live like this or go thru this again"

Mr Clark, you have some strong opinions about what people should be allowed to decide about their own lives and fate, but others have strong opinions contrary to yours. Go now...be sad at the outcome if it pleases you, but you are getting nowhere complaining about the decisions of others regarding their own situation.
