Scenario

" One day, you wake up in hospital. In the nearby bed lies a world famous violinist who is connected to you with various tubes and machines.

To your horror, you discover that you have been kidnapped by the Music Appreciation Society. Aware of the maestro’s impending death, they hooked you up to the violinist.

If you stay in the hospital bed, connected to the violinist, he will be totally cured in nine months. You are unlikely to suffer harm. No one else can save him. Do you have an obligation to stay connected?"

I think that in this case, i would definatly help this person. To me, it does not matter who the person is, but i would help them. Part of this may be because i like to help people, buut another part may be beacuse i would not want to live knowing that i was the only person who could have save someone's life, then decided not to. The only think that i would absloutly hate about this would be sitting in a bed for nine monts watching T.V. All i would be able to do is watch T.V., talk on th ephone, and eat. By the end of those nine months i bet i would gain a LOT of weigft. But that would not change my decision about helping someone live, because i can always loose the weight. Also, if the procedure did not effect me at all and afterwards i would be totally normal (but bigger) then that would be somthing that is not bad. I wouldnt care if it was a musician or somebody i dont even know, i would held them because if i didnt i would feel bad.
Also, if i was already connected when i woke up i would definatly stay there and help the other person stay alive. (Hey, that would be nine months that i would get to miss school, and that sounds like a good reason to me.) When already connected, i know that i could not disconnect and watch that man or woman die, so i would stay connected.
If you can not tell, if i was put in this scenario, i would definatly help this person out by staying connected to them.
