   I think offering the opportunity for people to do so at that time, or another time that is universal (as universal as possible) would be a great idea. How about if our primary care doctors offered us a copy of the standard forms most emergency rooms ...

2. Right to die vs. right to live

   Focker, Something as serious as someone who administers anesthesia doing illegal drugs? I don't see the justification in defending them unless you agree with it. I am not saying you,or anyone who feels it is okay is a user themselves, but I ...

    DKF, I think most of us,including yourself, know that users and addicts, in particular, can be the BEST liars and manipulators. I also believe if you work side by side with someone long enough, especially if you are a medical professional there ...

    RN/BSN/JD/ESQ Thank goodness for your conviction. I am seriously worried that I may receive medical care from some of the respondents to this thread. Some of these people are defending the actions of the alleged users so voraciously one may begin to ...
