13 Year Old Chooses Disneyland Over Heart Transplant

Well not exactly, but watch the video and you'll get the point.
Personally I am saddened by this whole thing. Why have the parents left it up to her to decide?
Is this the product of the single pay system? Has the British healthcare system bred apathy or is this an isolated case?

I think you need a paradigm shift. Assume for a second that the parents don't want their kid to die, this is not a result of socialist medicine and the kid is not apathetic. What would be the kids motivation then?

That is the point I am making. Is there such a scenario?
