Dr. Eric Steele of the Eastern Maine Medical Center states “We have this degree of technical ability to keep people alive without the ability to always restore them to good health.” At times people during their last hospital stay, although technically alive, are in a “vegetative state” and do not enjoy a meaningful quality life.
