Renal patient dies after doctor proposed ending hemodialysis

Erm... the expected result of stopping dialysis.  Suicide by failure to meet the body's needs.  Like starving onself to death, but in this case - suggested as an option by the doctor.  If she was terminal anyway, then maybe a reasonable suggestion - but if not, then medical negligence.  Of course still needing to be reviewed, which it seems is occuring, rather than it being hidden, which I do believe happens a fair bit.

This article is poorly written, as it makes it seem that the proposal to end treatment is the cause of the woman's death or due to her signing a letter of consent to end treatment.

I highly doubt that either of these are the cause of her dying.

Based on the information in this report it is impossible to know what actually happened and has somebody done misconduct.

Was this assisted suicide of sorts or doc negligence. Agreed this is poorly written article that brings forth more questions than it answers.
