Q. Dear Rabbi thank you for the class. During the class you touched the subject of euthanasia. This left me seriously thinking. As you know, the doctors at the critical care in the hospital tried to make me sign a DNR when my husband was fighting for his life after the accident 9 years ago. Then tried to terminate his life not once but twice.
Baruch HaShem with your help and dr Kirzner's help and intervention my husband is well and going strong. we do have challenges and it is not easy, but he is awalking miracle. Please let me know how can we help you and the other rabbis in the fight to change that terrible law.
On another personal situation, my mother has a pace maker, and before the dementia took over she said she did not want to get intubated if the situation was no longer with a possibility of recovery. what should we do? Regards.
A. Horav Dovid Pam Shlit’a and Horav Aharon Miller Shlit’a maintain that even if there is no possibility of recovery, life should be maintained.
Rabbi A. Bartfeld as revised by Horav Dovid Pam, Horav Aharon Miller and Horav Chanoch Ehrentreu Shlit'a
