Sentenced to death on British National Health Service

An article from The Daily Telegraph says leading doctors warn that patients with terminal illnesses are being made to die prematurely under an NHS (National Health Service) scheme to help end their lives!

Under NHS guidance introduced across England to help doctors and medical staff deal with dying patients, they can then have fluid and drugs withdrawn and many are put on continuous sedation until they pass away.

But this approach can also mask the signs that their condition is improving, the experts warn.

In a letter to The Daily Telegraph, a group of experts who care for the terminally ill claim that some patients are being wrongly judged as close to death.

Much of ObamaCare is eerily similar to British National Health Service. For instance, they both restrict medical procedures available to the elderly and the obese with the government making the decision rather than the doctor.
