You just make the objective observer doubt your credibility every time you say "personal experience" and then provide nothing else. Just fyi.

Whatever; OK it doesn't happen, I have no experience and just repeat rumors I hear about doctors getting rid of terminally ill or elderly patients. I need to blame a doctor because I can't accept the fact that people, especially the elderly and terminally ill, die.

OK well, any physician who willfully denies care or otherwise aids in the acceleration of a patient's demise, against the wishes of the family/POA, is not only up for revocation of their license but criminal charges. It's certainly not common practice as you stated earlier.
