There is also a case I read about in a book where a patient[péiʃənt] with terminal[tə́ːrmənl] cancer [kǽnsər] needed immediate[imíːdiət] attention[əténʃən]. Her regular[régjulər] doctor was unavailable[|ʌnə|veɪləbl] so another doctor came to her aid[eid]. Upon his arrival[əráivəl], the sick patient said "lets get this over with." Instead of asking her or her mother (who was with the girl at the time) what was meant by what the patient said, the doctor went and got a syringe[səríndʒ] of medicine that was lethal [líːθəl] enough[inΛf] to kill. He then gave it to the girl and she died.
