Beyond Microbursts

So here's a question for ya... Do we play God? I now work with the adult mentally impaired. Most of them are fairly independent, as far as able to feed themselves and use the restroom by themselves. However at some point a decision was made to save their lives. Should it have been? If I were to ask any of my fellow teachers I am sure they would say that our lives are better for having known them. I'm not sure Obama's healthcare plan would agree with us.
