Update on Eric Levy: Condemned to Death by the NHS?
Friends of Eric Levy, a 94-year-old protester and life-long human rights activist, continue to protest outside UCL Hospital Euston in London, where Eric has been held for 10 weeks. The ward matron has closed the ward and is preventing people from coming in to see Eric, allowing only 1 person 1 hour a day visiting time. Doctors have said Eric is not going home because of a new “infection” and insist he is still dying; witnesses report that Eric is in “good form” and “completely mentally coherent” despite what the doctors say, and wants to go home. Jill calls for people to help by sharing the story, to hopefully attract the attention of the mainstream media and spread the word so that people can protect themselves and their loved ones.
Context:
After being admitted to hospital for a fall, Eric is being kept in hospital against his will and doctors are attempting to give him ‘end of life care’ – despite Eric recovering from his initial injury, being of sound mind and strongly wishing to go home. His friends and fellow protesters, who have looked after Eric’s wellbeing for years, visit Eric regularly to give him good food and company, and report that he is being drugged and declining due to his treatment and confinement. Conversations are being raised about elder care, and the apparent euthanasia of people in state hospitals under the euphemistic guise of ‘palliative care’.
