“Doctor admits sadness that ‘locked in’ sufferer lived so long”

Neorologist Dr. Stelios Doris treated Tony Nicklinson seven years ago but said it was a “mistake” that he had survived for so long.
“So when I was informed that he was still alive I was surprised and sad also. I wouldn’t like for even for my worst enemy to stay alive in this condition for so many years.  I think that we owe him. He’s paying for our mistakes in a way.  We have not done medical mistakes but it’s a mistake that he survived.”
