Travel back in time to the 1960s to hear one of the most important bioethics stories to date—all about the "God Squad," a group of 7 Seattle residents in charge of making life-or-death medical decisions for patients—on #playinggod w/ @bermaninstitute: apple.co/3t7hiTE

Enormous thanks to everyone at @BermanInstitute involved with their excellent podcast "Playing God." Dr. Hutchinson was a wonderful guide. No doubt a huge amount of work, but I'm very sorry that the series has ended (maybe not forever?). @aregenberg

She'd need many surgeries to make it. Her father told doctors to do everything they could to keep her alive. Her friends told doctors Andrea wouldn't want to live this way.
