Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Edward is struggling with a bioethical issue as he has to make a difficult decision about his wife's life support. The other options do not necessarily involve an ethical dilemma but are difficult situations. Charles is not conscious and cannot make any decisions for himself, Henry's wife has already passed away, and Arthur's "farewell handshake" is not a clear bioethical issue.
