However, the father was and so the nephrologist meets with the father and also lets him know “the uncertain prognosis for his daughter even with a kidney transplant” . Hearing this, the father did not accept to donate his kidney, reasoning that his daughter had gone through enough, including other reasons that she could have a cadaver kidney and also that he didn’t have the courage to donate his kidney. Unfortunately with the father’s decision, he also insisted that the physician tell the family that he wasn’t histocompatible when in fact he was.

: The real problem was, the patient has not taken care well by the health care professional, while the patient really deserves a better care. There was no relative for the patient, I was pretty much taking care of everything for the patient.
As a doctor, to prepare myself to take on this case I would have to process a substantial amount of information and use my best judgment to conceive what the best plan of action regarding this case should be. Reviewing the four key principles in medical ethics: nonmaleficience, beneficence, respect for autonomy, and justice, would prove to be very helpful.
