Socialized medicine, especially in Britain, has a terminal infection of evil, and needs itself to be put on a 'death pathway.' Yet the bureaucrats love it. Kills 2 birds with one stone. Offs someone who will need expensive treatment and at the same time removes a no longer useful member of society. Isn't that compassionate of them though. His widow was right - this is barbaric and those administrators are guilty of manslaughter at least, murder at worst. But don't worry folks. It'll be different here. It will be better because.. uh...A grandfather who beat cancer and was wrongly told the disease had returned and left to die at a hospice which pioneered a controversial 'death pathway'.
Doctors said there was nothing more they could do for 76-year- old Jack Jones, and his family claim he was denied food, water and medication except painkillers.
He died within two weeks. But tests after his death found that his cancer had not come back and he was in fact suffering from pneumonia brought on by a chest infection.
To his family's horror, they were told he could have recovered if he'd been given the correct treatment.
Yesterday, after being given an £18,000 pay-out over her ordeal, his widow Pat branded his treatment 'barbaric' and accused the doctors of manslaughter.
Mr Jones was being cared for at a hospice which was central to the contentious Liverpool Care Pathway under which dying patients have their life support taken away, although the hospice claims it wasn't officially applied in his case.
The scheme is used by hundreds of hospitals and care homes, and is followed in as many as 20,000 deaths a year.
...'We fought in the hospice to get Jack the right treatment and they blocked us, making us feel we were a nuisance.
