We discuss the issue of when to help a
patient die. Doctors of our generation are
not
newcomers
to
this
question.
Going
back
to
my
internship
（实习）
days,
I
can
remember
many
patients
in
pain,
sometimes
in
coma(
昏迷
),
with
late,
hopeless
cancer.
For
many
of them,
we wrote an order for heavy medication
—
morphine(
吗啡
)by
the clock. This
was not talked about
openly and little was written about it. It was
essential, not
controversial.
The best way to bring the problem into
focus is to describe two patients whom
I
cared
for.
The
first,
formerly
a
nurse,
had
an
automobile
accident.
A
few
days
later
her
lungs seemed to fill up; her heart developed
dangerous rhythm disturbances. So
there
she was: in coma, on a breathing machine, her
heartbeat maintained with an
electrical
device. One day after rounds, my secretary said
the husband and son of
the patient
wanted to see me. They told me their wife and
mother was obviously going
to die; she
was a nurse and had told her family that she never
wanted this kind of
terrible
death,
being
maintained
by
machines.
I
told
them
that
while
I
respected
their
view, there was nothing deadly about
her situation. The kidney(
肾
)
failure she had
was just
the
kind for which the artificial kidney was most
effective. While possibly
a
bit
reassured,
they
were
disappointed.
Here
was
the
head
surgeon
seemingly
determined to keep everybody alive, no
matter what.
Within a few days the
patient's pacemaker(
起搏器
)
could be removed and she awoke
from her
coma. About six months later, the door of my
office opened and in walked
a
gloriously fit woman. After some cheery words of
appreciation, the father and son
asked
to
speak
to
me
alone.
As
soon
as
the
door
closed,
both
men
became
quite
tearful.
All that came out
was,
The second patient was an 85-year-
old lady whose hair caught fire while she was
smoking.
She
arrived
with
a
deep
burn;
I
knew
it
would
surely
be
deadly.
As
a
remarkable
coincidence there was a meeting for
discussion going on at the time in medical
- 2 -
ethics(
道德
).
The
speaker
asked
me
if
I
had
any
sort
of
ethical
problem
I
could
bring
up for discussion. I
described the case and asked the students their
opinion. After
the discussion, I made a
remark that was, when looking back, a serious
mistake. I
said,
word back
to
the nurses about her
and we will
talk
about it some
more
before we decide.
The
instructor and the students were
shocked:
is a real
patient?
actuality. In any event, I went
back and met with the nurses. A day or two later,
when she was making no progress and was
suffering terribly, we began to back off
treatment. Soon she died quietly and
not in pain. As a reasonable physician, you had
better move ahead and do what you would
want done for you. And don't discuss it with
the
world
first.
There
is
a
lesson
here
for
everybody.
Assisting
people
to
leave
this
life requires strong
judgment and long experience to avoid its misuse.
10. In the early days when a patient
had got a deadly, hopeless illness, _____.
A.
doctors used
to ask the patient to go back home and wait for
death
B.
doctors
would
write
all
their
treatment
plan
on
the
p
atient’s
medical
record
C.
doctors would
talk about their treatment plan openly
D.
usually
doctors would inject more morphine into the
patient to end his life
11. The first
patient’s husband and son wanted the
doctor_____.
A.
to end her life
B. to save her life
D. to use an artificial kidney
C.
to operate on
her at once
12. In the
second paragraph, why were they disappointed?
A.
Their wife and
mother was going to die.
B.
They doctor
didn’t do as they asked to.
C.
Their wife and
mother had to receive a kidney transplant.
D.
The doctor
scolded them for their cruelty
13. At the meeting, the
author discussed with the students_____.
A.
how to help
patients end their lives
B.
the importance of mercy killing
C.
the
relationship between mercy killing and ethics
D.
the case about
an old lady

killing
himself.
A.

with the others first
B.
make sure there is no other choice left
C.
be required to
do so first by the patient

patient enough morphine
