Does Anyone Care?

Doctors are now refusing life-saving treatment and even basic sustenance to patients and deliberately hastening deaths and when apprising members of the community of the circumstances of my Father's death, we are met with quizzical looks, bemused expressions, outright disbelief, and people thinking we are absolutely crazy. Warnings that should be taken seriously are ignored far too often. In the case of "futile care policy", ignorance is not bliss but an invitation to great peril at the hands of medical practitioners turned predators.
