If it was due to a young person with a life limiting condition and a 98yr old with associated age related degeneration then there's a difference imo.
Except if it was your relative I'm guessing you'd feel differently. Old people are not worthless and doctors are not Gods. If they can help someone they are duty bound by the Hippocratic Oath to do so.

People make the mistake of thinking that all medical staff are caring angels. I think the Liverpool Pathway put paid to that idea. And deciding who should die is not a decision anyone can make.
