There's an m.d. who posts regularly here on FR who has practiced medicine for 30 years, and in all of that time he says only 1 person went ahead with the decision to withold extraordinary care that they had previously made

One person who was able to communicate.

Only brain injured patients get killed by those "respecting their wishes", because only brain injured patients can't change their minds.

I didn't misquote you, did I? Hope not.

You know, I think you doctors are especially loved by God. He gives you guys and gals a formidable intellect that you translate into helping people live better and longer lives. I've liked all of my doctors. Haven't always listented to them, but liked and trusted them all. Is it true that it is no longer mandatory to take the Hippocratic Oath?
