My response...... would I save them or not???

If I was in a hospital and there was a famous person in the bed next to me and the only way that person wouldn't die was if they were to be attached to me with tubes for 9 months, and that 9 months would have to be spent in a bed, would I or wouldn't I give up 9 months of my life for this person?

Just because this "musician" is famous is it right that they get to waste nine months of my life? Would I charge them for this wasted 9 months? Does it matter how old this famous "musician" is? If it was a nobody would I save them then? Does it matter whether or not they are famous? My answer : no

I think that as a person who cares about right and wrong for me it would be phsycological suicide to let them die. I do not think it would be fun or cool or envy making to have a parasite, but I do think that my conscience would not be able to know that just because it would be boring to stay in a bed for 9 months that I let someone die. It would not matter to me one way or another if the person in need was famous or destitute. I do not care how old or how young this person was.

The only thing that would matter to me is what this person would do with their life that I just spared.

I think that my only charge would be that they would have to do something worthy with their life since I just helped them. My charge would be that for 9 months they would have to do something or somethings to help others. For nine months the only thing that should be of utmost importance is helping others, making a change in the world however they could.
