It is rarely the people who are asking, that are doing the paying...

The good thing about modern medicine is that it keeps people alive longer. The bad thing is that some people shouldn't be alive... but we always did like to play God!

Basic ICU charges are as little as $1500 a day, and can go past $5k PER DAY. Add to that, the meds and equipment supplied, and your bill for this lady has possibly exceeded $3 or $4. That is $3 or 4 for each taxpayer in the US!

God allows us to make these decisions... He already did, but the docs are hanging on!
