When someone other’s quality of life is too much for you to bear, you might not be a good person, especially when you declare that someone being handicapped is a legitimate medical reason to have said handicapped die.
Case in point in, of all places, Texas:
“Michael Hickson became quadriplegic due to receiving CPR after he went into sudden cardiac arrest while driving Melissa to work in May 2017. Melissa and their five children stayed by Michael’s side throughout his recovery. He landed back in the hospital in 2020 after contracting COVID-19 and pneumonia from a staff member at his nursing home.
“Michael was conscious and alert but could not communicate verbally. He responded to jokes, shook his head, and puckered his lips on a FaceTime call when Melissa requested a kiss. Melissa asked if she could pray with her husband and their children, to which he nodded “yes.” But the doctor soon told Melissa her husband would be placed in hospice against her will. In a recorded conversation, the St. David’s doctor told Melissa her husband would not receive treatment because of his disability, despite her wishes.”
The National Council on Disability’s condemnation will likely fall on deaf ears, so as to speak.
To up the ante, the practitioners of torture-killing patients, the U.K.’s National Healthcare Service, gave out “do not resuscitate” orders to people with learning disabilities (for FREE!!1!, of course).
“People with learning disabilities have been given do not resuscitate orders during the second wave of the pandemic, in spite of widespread condemnation of the practice last year and an urgent investigation by the care watchdog.
“Mencap said it had received reports in January from people with learning disabilities that they had been told they would not be resuscitated if they were taken ill with Covid-19.
“The Care Quality Commission said in December that inappropriate Do Not Attempt Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (DNACPR) notices had caused potentially avoidable deaths last year.
“DNACPRs are usually made for people who are too frail to benefit from CPR, but Mencap said some seem to have been issued for people simply because they had a learning disability. The CQC is due to publish a report on the practice within weeks.
“The disclosure comes as campaigners put growing pressure on ministers to reconsider a decision not to give people with learning disabilities priority for vaccinations.”
Eugenics and euthanasia have always been core concepts of socialized medicine, because to improve the collective health of all, the weakest had to be sacrificed. Now-a-days these homicidal maniacs aren’t even offering that excuse.
