The A-level schoolgirl from Birmingham suffered from a rare degenerative disease and was fully conscious and able to communicate, repeatedly telling doctors that she did not want to die. However, last month a Court of Protection judge said that she lacked the capacity to make decisions about her treatment amid reporting restrictions preventing Sudiksha, her family and the NHS Trust and medics treating her, from being identified.
So she says she doesnt want to die, so they declare incompetent so that they can ignore her request not to die, then they are able to her name from the record so that it cannot be discussed.
I hear nothing butt bad news from the UK. I hope to never travel there as the weather seems awful too. George Orwell cpuld have never prwdicted what a world bongland would become.

It's an open secret that the NHS will do whatever it can to get rid of you once the going gets any tougher than 'two paracetamol and frick off'. There's basically an ongoing, intermittently-resurfacing scandal of NHS nursing homes putting their more demanding residents into a locked room with an angry sudanese nurse and letting nature take its course.
But it's "free" tho

She wanted to try an experimental treatment in the US but the reporting restrictions meant that her family couldn't launch a crowdfunding campaign.

As sad as it is, trying to raise $1.5M for some hail-Mary treatment was never going to have a happy ending.
Especially as she could have ended up in the placebo group anyway, lol.

There's no placebo groups anymore. The control is always people undergoing the current standard of care.

Well it seems like whatever experimental drug there is for this condition will beat the current "just kill them" standard of care

Am I missing something?!?!? I've read this story a few times and it legit looks like this hospital straight up murdered this girl begging for a chance to keep living, how the frick is the UK not in an uproar right now?
Like this is literally the death panels that people memes Sarah Palin on. Is this one of those “it's not happening, but if it does it's a good thing?”
Assisted suicide sounds good in principal but it's really fricking obvious you can't trust public healthcare to handle this shit.

The authorities held back this story by refusing to release her name. By the time anyone knew she was already dead.
Bongs are numb to it all. The BBC and other MSM have lied to them so much they don't know what to believe and Brexit has completely destroyed their confidence in themselves to make rational decisions, so they're paralysed by uncertainty about what's really going on.

Brexit was a rational decision. I don't care about the economics, willingly being a part of Europe is worth avoiding at any cost.

It's hard to find the hospital's side but it seems she had some kind of rare mitochondrial disorder causing multiple health issues including kidney failure, respiratory failure, and heart failure. The hospital stopped dialysis but instead of dying of kidney failure the respiratory failure got her.
The family wanted to go to Canada for an experimental treatment but there's no telling if that would have worked or she would have survived the trip.
You might know someone who had an elderly parent or grandparent dying so they begged the doctors to do anything possible so they kept reviving a corpse for a few months until it no longer worked. I'm going to assume the hospital always tried reviving her and finally there was one time it didn't take.

tbh there was probably some conflict between the parents and hospital staff that needlessly escalated. Something similar happened in Boston with a teenager named Justina Pelletier. The kid was stuck in a psych ward for over a year and her parents weren't allowed to seek outside medical opinions. The parent themselves were clearly off, but not so off to say they are engaged in Munchausen's by proxy.

People hear about things like this and are rightfully pissed but the stories I hear from my psych foid about going through lengthy court processes so they can make the guy flinging his shit at anyone who comes near and attacking people for no reason take his meds that have had him thanking the doctors for saving him multiple times is the more common experience. When things like this happen six new regulations are put in place, hospitals get more expensive to cover the costs(guess on if this patient was profitable) and we're still going to see another story like it in 6 months.

The Reverse Dog Pill is the incel response to the dog pill, and the idea is that if women would rather sleep with dogs than with them, then they in turn will start sleeping with dogs instead of women. The debate around this pill was tagged “SERIOUS” on a popular incel message board – which may be a strong indication it is not, in fact, taken seriously.
