Fri 1 Oct. Medicine and Morals: Your Jewish Guide Through Life's Tough Decisions October 2010 How is Jewishness determined in the case of surrogate motherhood? Are you permitted, or perhaps even obliged, to donate a kidney to save the life of a loved one? May you pursue a dangerous experimental treatment that has the risk of shortening life? Should your children and teens have the autonomy to refuse a potentially lifesaving treatment because of its arduous side effects, even when you disagree with their decision? Modern medicine creates many new quandaries as it continually pushes the boundaries of what is possible. In Medicine and Morals, learn how Jewish tradition resolves today's great medical issues and how your faith can help you make better medical decisions. 10215 N.
