Strained by Katrina, a Hospital Faced Deadly Choices
The New York Times Magazine has a riveting account of what happened inside New Orleans' Memorial Medical Center during Hurricane Katrina. It raises a ton of ethical questions that I hope to never have to think about on the spot. But the reality is we all may have to someday. This is definitely one of the more thought-provoking medical articles I have read in awhile.

I read this on Friday and was absolutely flabbergasted by what I read... to the point where I had to close down my laptop. Really makes you wonder about medical ethics, huh?
