Best Answer

Suicide is not at all the solution. You need to examine under what circumstances medical need treatment has been refused by the hospital authority.You need to take third party opinion regarding what best can be done in such a critical situation. As a last resort, you can approach Consumer Form or Insurance Ombudsman for remedy.

DNR, or do not resuscitate, is usually a choice made by someone who is very ill. It is a contract that states if a medical crisis presents itself, they would like to let nature take its course and not use medical technology to prolong an inevitable death. This is not the definition of suicide; suicide is a deliberate act and is not seen as a natural progression.

Is an advanced directive the same as committing suicide?

No. To commit suicide is to take either an active or passive action in order to bring about the end of your life. Active suicide is the more commonly used method and would include deliberate drug overdose and self-inflicted gunshot wounds. Passive suicide generally consists of refusing medical treatment such as a feeding tube. An advanced directive is a legal document that lays out your preferences for medical treatment if you are unable to give those directions yourself. Generally these documents include directions for how a doctor should proceed in the event of a life-threatening accident or disease. Other instructions could include directions for or against blood transfusions (if a person's religious beliefs preclude this type of treatment) or other personal, religious, social, financial or familial preferences.
