In a recent decision of the Tel Aviv Family Law Court, Judge Yehoram Shaked ruled that the Tel Aviv Medical Center could amputate the hand of a minor, A.M. against her mother's wishes in order to prevent the A.M.'s cancer from spreading to her lungs and giving her a 60-65% of survival. (Family Court Case T.A. 26442-04-11.) The Judge wrote that there were two questions before him: First, should A.M.'s hand be amputated? And second, and easier to decide, should we prefer life to death? When the second question is answered in the affirmative, it follows that A.M. must lose her hand to save her life. The mother of the girl said that she believed that prayer and fasting was the solution to A.M.'s medical crisis.
