I don't believe it is the Dr's doing this time I think he is complying with the wishes of the family.

But I don't doubt that often the case is as was mentioned above, sometimes I think the DR's won't tell people the truth cause they lack back bone. Other times it's because they feel they can get more money & then other ocasions they Really care & believe it's best for the patient. I won't try to second guess this case with my friend but I feel they chose this route because they care. Right or wrong decision, it's because of the love they have for him & for that reason I have purposed to respect their wishes... even though I would want to know the truth
