    United Kingdom National Health Service: Patients Being Made to Die Prematurely?

    Maybe the death panel talk by Sarah Palin was NOT all BS. Look at what they are doing in Britain with their socialized National Health Service and how physicians are now upset and making charges.

    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.

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across England to help doctors and medical staff deal with dying patients, they can then have fluid and drugs withdrawn and many are put on continuous sedation until they pass away.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

    As a result the scheme is causing a “national crisis” in patient care, the letter states. It has been signed palliative care experts including Professor Peter Millard, Emeritus Professor of Geriatrics, University of London, Dr Peter Hargreaves, a consultant in Palliative Medicine at St Luke’s cancer centre in Guildford, and four others.

    Is this a lesson for the Obama Administration and health care reform?

    You betcha.

    Americans do NOT want this nightmare.

    Mr. President, LESS government in health care – NOT MORE.

    Flap does not want some Obamacare government bureaucrat in Washington pulling the plug on my life or that of my loved ones.
