Discuss, using the text, how you believe this case should be decided. Remember to reference specific ethical principles from the text: "A 13 year old girl, suffering from toxic shock syndrome, is sent directly from school to a local emergency room. Treatment is ordered, including fever-reducing medication and a strong course of intravenous antibiotics. The parents arrive just as the medication and equipment arrive in the emergency room. They announce they are Christian Scientists and wish to take their daughter home." The clinical approach to this case requires the application of the procedure by which medical indications, patient preferences, projected quality of life and contextual features be applied. How would you decide it given our readings so far?
