Sarah Murnaghan, a victim of ObamaCare at the tender age of just ten years old has beaten back the Death Panel, at least for now. Thanks to the intervention by federal judge Michael Baylson, Sarah got her urgently needed and life saving lung transplant with no time to spare.
This is open defiance of Death Panel Czarina Kathleen Sebelius' order that she be allowed to die because it's simply against the rules to allow a child to receive adult lungs. Ignore the fact that the child's doctors all insist that adult lungs would work in Sarah's case. The Czarina hath spaketh.
Obama's boss, George Soros has long been a fan of death panels. Mr. Compassion was irked when his own father refused to die in a timely manner. "I was disappointed in him . . . I wrote him off." Soros is a believer in euthanasia for humans whose medical conditions have rendered them too big of a financial drain on the system. Hence his Project on Death in America.
The sine qua non of communisim is the dimunition in value of the individual human life. The collective is all. Stories like Sarah's are inevitable if ObamaCare is allowed to stand. We can't always rely on the courts to do the right thing.
Little Sarah's surgery went well and her prognosis is good, no thanks to the government which would just as soon have killed her: some live, some die, after all, says the Czarina.
When there are a very limited amount of available organs and a much larger list of those in need of organ donation, any manipulation of that list by government officials will negatively impact persons on the list of potential organ recipients.
The organ donation process should be left to medical professionals and not judges or members of Obama’s cabinet.
According to post 13 the decision was not being made by medical professionals but rather by politicians before the girl was born. In addition, while someone may have been bumped, though we don’t know it, one has to wonder how much SHE was bumped by the existing rules.
