3/29 fieldnote

 

        這周是我們第一次參與文建站的活動,我和Annabelle見到了李金妹、李金蘭阿嬤兩姊妹,還有何秀妹阿嬤。金蘭阿嬤的五官深邃,總覺得看起來有點酷;金妹阿嬤看起來很聰明,而且相當健談,說話很有條理;秀妹阿嬤則是非常的活潑可愛,說話有很多生動的小動作。

The article discusses the cares and the decisions made in regards to patient care at a hospital during hurricane Katrina. A team of doctors decided to euthanize several patients who were suffering and likely would not receive care or live much longer anyway. While, the team of medical professionals made this choice morally and to relieve the patients of their suffering they are still subject to malpractice claims and breaking protocol. The article suggests a disconnect between those working in the field alongside patients and those making rules and regulations.
