Friday Morning Dilemma

[Niamh.]

You are a doctor at a top hospital. You have six gravely ill patients, five of whom are in urgent need of organ transplants. You can’t help them, though, because there are no available organs that can be used to save their lives. The sixth patient, however, will die without a particular medicine. If s/he dies, you will be able to save the other five patients by using the organs of patient 6, who is an organ donor. What do you do?

Sacrifice the one patient to save the lives of the other 5. A terrible, terrible choice to have to make though.

[Jamie89]

I would treat the 6th patient. I think that contradicts what I said in one of the other dilemmas where I think I said I'd let someone die to save more people, but I think if I was a doctor I would feel like I have to treat people where I can. Also, imagine if you let the 6th person die in order to use their organs and then someone else died whose organs could also be used, this person will have died needlessly at your hands. So with this scenario there is still hope for the other 5 even if you treat the 6th person.

Yeah i would treat the 6th patient also, I think it would be completely unethical for a Doctor to do anything else. It's basically stealing a persons body parts when they could have been saved. I think it's like one of the other dilemmas about the 2 husbands who hate their wives, one poisons the wife and the other doesn't help the wife when she poisons herself, this is the same thing imo, the Doctor may as well have murdered that 6th patient by refusing to help them

[bots]

if the 6th patient has a functioning version of the organs required, then rotate his organs with each patient, rotating back and forward until the organs become available for permanent transplant.

[Crimson Dynamo]

The doctor has to treat patient 6 as he/she swore an oath to do so.

[Vicky.]

Yeah this one is easy. Save the 6th.

[Lostie!]

Go to the Winchester, have a nice cold pint, and wait for all of this to blow over.

[Natalie.]

Hey Shaun. :laugh:

I'd treat the 6th patient too.

[Niamh.]

:love:

[smudgie]

No dilemma here, of course you would treat patient number 6 and carry on hoping for organs for the rest through natural deaths of others.
You can't go around killing someone so that others can benefit.:nono:

[Crimson Dynamo]

What and pay £12.50 to get into the cathedral? No way

[Kyle]

Take the 6th patient's organs and sell em on the black market.

I'd keep the penis and post it to Mokka though.

She won't pay you, you'll see

Her support of the black market penis trade is ruining it for us legit cock sellers. Iv had a 7.3 inch Ukrainian one on ebay for 6 days now and I got no bids

I am sick of her and her illegal schlong business, its killing the whole market

7.3 inch you say? I'll buy that for our lass. Might help cure her constant bed time headaches. :think:

Moan about it being a saturday.

[T*]

treat none of them because it isnt my problem or occupation

[Northern Monkey]

Let number 6 die obvs:shrug:

[jaxie]

It's not logical that the 6th patient would be a match for all the other patients so you could probably only save one.

[Crimson Dynamo]

Yoy have to throw logic out the window for the dilemmas :fist:

[Niamh.]

Let number 6 die obvs:shrug:

what if number 6 was a relative of yours and you found out that they could have been saved but the Doctor decided not to help them because he wanted to take their organs

[Crimson Dynamo]

Is this Doctor foreign?

:suspect:

[Mokka]

Take the 6th patient's organs and sell em on the black market.

I'd keep the penis and post it to Mokka though.

Ahhh, Kyle...I barely know you and yet you seem to know me so well :suspect:


She won't pay you, you'll see

Her support of the black market penis trade is ruining it for us legit cock suckers. Iv had a 7.3 inch Ukrainian one on ebay for 6 days now and I got no bids

Fixed it :hee:

[Mokka]

Re: the OP...ahem

As A doctor...I would have taken the oath to do no harm...and I would be harming the sixth patient to save the first 5...leaving me vulnerable to a law suit where I will lose my license to practice medicine...making me unable to pay off my student loans for the 8+ years of education it took to become a doctor... left living on the streets where I will catch an illness perfectly curable by a medication...but I won't have health care so I will die in a karma like similar situation to patient six...

That is not a spiral I am willing to go down :nono:

[Crimson Dynamo]

Ahhh, Kyle...I barely know you and yet you seem to know me so well :suspect:




Fixed it :hee:

Oops...well Nelly has been in your life for much longer :shrug:... but a lady might not forgive that one LT.

[Mokka]

Maybe make that situation into a Friday night dilemma thread :hehe:

[Crimson Dynamo]

It looks like being a sunday, monday, tuesday, wednesday and thursday dilemma

:omgno:

[Mokka]

:omgno:

Yeah...you and Nelly are both going to be in the dog house together I would say :smug:

[Johnnyuk123]

I would save the 6th patient but brainwash them into killing hookers and pimps once they get out of hospital. I would then use the organs of the hookers and pimps murdered by patient No6 to save the other five people.:hee:

Always the practical one am i. During my vacation in TIBB Towers recently i was ever so helpful removing the corns from the mods feet with a cheese grater and i lanced their boils too with a blunt rusty knife. :thumbs:

I read corns as horns and thought... no Johnny...the horns grow there as a permanent fixture :fan:

Tbh they did have the horn for me. So I slept with one eye open on the bed of nails just in case. :joker:
