The limited right to alter memory. Kolber, A. J. Journal of Medical Ethics, 40(10):658–659, 2014. ![The limited right to alter memory [link]](https://bibbase.org/img/filetypes/link.svg "link")
Paper doi abstract bibtex [first paragraph] We like to think we own our memories. If we could ever dampen or erase a memory, the decision to do so, it may seem, should be ours and ours alone. On occasion, for example, patients unexpectedly regain consciousness while undergoing major surgery. Many are horrified by the experi- ence and subsequently develop post- traumatic stress disorder. If there were a way to avoid such trauma by blocking or erasing the memory of one's own surgery, surely patients should ordinarily be given the opportunity to do so. Indeed, intrao- perative awareness presents a rare oppor- tunity to erase a memory with limited downside.
