My mother in law was refused a liver transplant because she refused to stop drinking.
There are only so many donors and demand far exceeds the supply.
I'm sorry that both this person and my mother in law have passed but I also accept that precious donor organs are going to go to recipients with the best prospects for long term recovery.
My mother in law chose to drink rather than receive a transplant, this person chose her political convictions over a transplant. They were both adults who made the best choices they saw fit to make. Even though I see both as preposterous I respect thier convictions/addictions.
I see no issue here and we should move on rather than try to make hay out of this.
