    I agree. To my mind it springs the American Dream, with thoughts of the dusty west, and always racism interwoven with it all. But I wonder if this is due to the literature we are exposed to when we were given these sort of classifications. Certainly our school collections only offered The Great Gatsby, To Kill a Mockingbird and Catcher in the Rye out of all the American novels.

    I agree that it could not be used routinely for all fractures but I can think of a few situations where it could be revolutionary . Very complex fractures certainly, but even better for revisions. Think of fractures around a prosthesis, such as hip fractures. Because the surgeons have to remove bone in order to fit the prosthesis, if the bone is fractured later they are left with significantly less to work with and this currently leads to long, complex operations. By giving surgeons the ability to "remodel" they can increase the amount of bone they have to work with, hopefully improving outcomes. This certainly seems to offer a viable alternative. It could even be used in elective operations such as knee replacement revisions without the current loss of leg length.

    As a non-American I'm surprised by the lack of Steinbeck. To me his novels are characterised by his stark interpretations of American ideologies.

    Given that depression affects our decision making and that the symptoms include suicidal ideation and lack of hope for the future it does seem very surprising that her doctors would feel that she has capacity to make this decision. But also interestingly the article mentions "terminal". Is her depression terminal? It would appear to at least be incurable (with current treatment options) and causing suffering but is that how the law is interpreted or is it simply a mistranslation?
