When did I say a doctor can override a patient? That’s not remotely the standard of care in the US. Calling that a red herring is generous.

"it's between the individual and their doctor if they want to pursue medical things."

It isn't. It's between an individual and their damn self.

Alright I can tell when a conversation isn’t productive anymore. Have a good rest of your weekend.

When you stop listening?

I explained very clearly why the implications of the position you took were harmful.

I didn’t stop listening. I read what you wrote. You are not entitled to my attention, to be blunt. And vice versa!

This is a fight now, it’s not a discussion. We both made our cases, we both processed the other’s argument (I hope), and we both still disagree. Let’s just move on.

This is a fight now

I'm petty? You're the one who's keeping this going.
