This was an interesting movie and when talking of medical
ethics opens a very wide range of topics. There are a lot of different topics
when it comes to the medical field because so much of our medicine is still
fairly new. What happen at Auschwitz was without question an extreme violation
of any and all medical laws and ethics. It is an amazing story of survival and
the power of the human spirit. To be able to go through what the Jews did in
the Holocaust and survive is an amazing medical phenomenon in itself. The worst
and hardest military schools in the world could not prepare you for what they
went through. In the end the fact that this feeble old woman was able to go
back to the scene of the crime so to speak and give forgiveness to the Nazi for
what they did to her is even more amazing. This is a feat that I have only read
and heard about in church. The direction I think I will take with this essay is
more of a modern day takes on medical ethics and laws. I might take a look into
the Dr. Kevorkian trials and medical ethics of people who are terminally ill
and their rights to make decisions on their own. This is going to be an
interesting topic for me.
