Medical ethics

To St George's hospital, Tooting for Wandsworth Interfaith forum event on medical ethics and faith perspectives. Hard to hear some of the speakers (Christian, Hindu, Sikh and Muslim). I asked about the new government idea about donating organs - Muslims do not allow this after death. I went to the forum about sexual clinics and HIV as Wandsworth has a particular concern about teenage pregnancy rates. 40,000 attend the clinic at Tooting every year! I chatted to the nurses at the excellent meal of chicken and rice and they will send the library new information. It was most interesting. Amazed to find that the Christian speaker was Margaret Semple who grew up at St Mark's Yeoville and is John Alexander's cousin! A small world indeed!
