019: Euthanasia By Intentional Medical Neglect

from Life Matters

Euthanasia is being practiced in the United States under what is supposedly voluntary circumstances. This is known as "Dr. Assisted Suicide". But whatever voluntary euthanasia is, it quickly has moved to involuntary euthanasia. Euthanasia is currently legal in the United States under the auspice of "Dr. Assisted Suicide". But there are many cases of euthanasia by intentional medical neglect as well. All around the world where physicians are allowed to kill patients, euthanasia quickly moves from voluntary to involuntary. Brian interviews with Mike Hodas of San Francisco, California who witnessed the intentional medical killing of his wife and the not too subtle approach of medical professionals to remove him from any decision-making capacity. Mrs. Hodas had all food and water removed from her although she was not terminal. It is the removal of food and fluids that makes anyone terminal. It is an act of intentional medical neglect which results in the intentional killing of the patient.
