Live Well?

I'm now wondering how weaker it might have been my idea for the importance of the individual's right. Ten out of ten people say the patient's wish ought to be respected more than the doctor's opinion. In the end any patients go to see a doctor whom they want to have themselves see. Any patients have a right to choose a doctor or even not to go to see a doctor. A doctor can neither force patients to come to see him nor practice medical procedures the patients feel detested.Usually for the ordinary patients it's more important to live longer. But for people who have some belief, it might be much more important to live well in accordance with the way they are eager to pursue rather than just to live longer.
