As an alcoholic, I initially agreed. Don't waste a liver on me. Then this:

Even pleas for a living liver transplant, with Allan offering to be her donor, were not entertained.

What the actual fuck.

It’s not like giving away part of your liver is a zero sum game, now that person is at risk of infection, has lesser liver performance, and for what? Someone who has showed they will just continue to harm themselves, and others (the person they’re getting the liver from,) if you allow it?

I don’t know any other surgeons who would do that.

If a surgeon refused to let me save the life of the one person in the world i love then they wouldn't be able to save any more lives after that so add that to your heartless calculations...

Yes these people should indeed be killed for letting another human die for no good reason.
