Hi mARToons fan!

 

Today’s flashback cartoon (originally published August 2018) hits close to home for me: I am in New Zealand visiting my aging mom and daily I get to socialize with about a dozen elderly folks, some who are basically ‘living bodies’ with very little mind left.

 

Why does society keep those ones alive? Who exactly is deciding to keep them alive?

 

Would the person themself want to be kept alive?

 

Sorry, no answers here. Something to think about, though.

 

Cheers, mARTy West, editor, clickmARtoons.com
