The Wicked Witch of HHS

Ethically speaking, this situation is a tough one…

 

Via CNS News ~

Health and Human Service Secretary Kathleen Sebelius said Tuesday that she would not intervene in a decision that bars a 10-year-old girl – given just weeks to live – from getting a lung transplant.
 
During a House hearing on HHS’ FY 2014 budget request, Rep. Tom Price (R-Ga.) urged Sebelius to intervene in the case of Sarah Murnaghan, who suffers from cystic fibrosis and could die within weeks without a lung transplant, but is considered too young for one according to rules adopted in 2005 by transplant doctors.

 

I’m really not sure what the right decision is here (rules… exceptions… we need Solomon’s wisdom for this one) – heart-wrenching.
 
But I do know that Sebelius’ attitude as the self-appointed Goddess of Organ Transplants is stunningly callous ~
