Now we can keep people alive on machines for decades
Well beyond when we should and frequently selfishly. I watched my grandmother suffer needlessly through a couple of rounds of cancer because my narcissistic mother demanded she not die, even though my grandma was ready to accept her fate. The alternative is get people to accept that we will all eventually decline and that death comes for everyone no matter how much money you throw at it. We shouldn’t let our elders suffer because we don’t care, we should care enough to help them let go when it’s become obvious there’s no quality of life left even if the body can be kept alive. We need to have a real talk about euthanasia as a personal choice and quit shaming it like it’s an affront to god.
