It didn’t sound that way. It sounded like you and some others were saying that she knew it was wrong but wasn’t invested/connected enough to rise above her job duties. I am saying that I disagree that people think there is something wrong with letting an older person die. She didn’t call 911 to save the life and then refuse to join in. She called 911 for the same reason that she didn’t join in. She followed protocol. And for all we know she was like millions of others out there who did what they hope to have done to them. Thinking she went against what is right and chose her job over a life is projecting your values on her. Many in her situation may have happily done the same thing. Of course it would NOT be the choice of a Yid, but why assume she wasn’t perfectly comfortable allowing a person to die naturally?
