Canadian euthanasia provider 'regrets' ending life of young cancer patient who had 65% chance for cure https://thepostmillennial.com/canadian-euthanasia-provider-regrets-ending-life-of-young-cancer-patient-who-had-65-chance-for-cure
"I didn’t regret it at first. But when I started thinking deeply about how to better safeguard this process, I regretted ending this young person’s life. I just parachuted in, I didn’t know this patient. And I didn’t take the time to have a meaningful discussion with them. I didn’t sit down and say, 'Why don’t you just try this treatment? If it’s as bad as you think it’s going to be, MAID will be available.' MAID was so new then, and we were all so focused on patient autonomy. The current law has no place for clinical judgement, and no stipulation for meaningful conversation. If it did, this person may be alive today."
Medical ethics today is just Utilitarianism. No one has any philosophical training anymore--myself included--but I know enough to know that Utilitarianism is nonsense.
Eventually people are going to have to figure out from scratch all the stuff that the so-called "Enlightenment" flushed down the toilet.
My cancer is a 30% chance of being here in 5 years (2 years to go personally). Its a pity more aint educated on alternative options. Cannabis has been stigmatised for a reason. (Same with ivermectin). Too many people are also willing to claim those going the natural route are giving up. Amazing moreso for those who know me and how stubborn a.f I am. I aint giving up. 65% is good odds to just let go, but worse is knowing statistics is one science area that many fark up.
