Whatever happened to the Hippocratic Oath? I've already abandoned any hope for some people's sense of morality and responsibility... nono.gif

On the news, the announcer interviewed a doctor who was horrified with the whole thing, and thought it was deplorable.
The cartoon sure shows how a lot of dogs and people think about it.
The womans mother said when her daughter came home, she was 'leaving'.

I've noticed that all the "Morning..." shows, which usually jump on this type of thing, have been conspicuous by their non-interviewing / non-showering of 'freebies' on this particular case?!?!?!?!?!

It was a different doctor, not the one who did the implanting.
One who was upset that the implanting had been done without some research on the woman/family.
6 kids, some with disabilities, and got 8 more implants? Potentially several more kids.
Who will support this 'litter', if they cannot support themselves? Who is paying the medical care for them now?

That's exactly my point. That's shows that the Oath was not used/remembered/applied.
