Re. your statement below. If someone's (or some group's) care
is 'adequate' and another's isn't, then this suggests to me that the
principle of equal access for equal need is probably being violated. Thus,
if we believe in that principle, then we would aim to address the
imbalance. I don't think this undermines Oliver's position at all (I am
assuming that his wife was receiving care somewhat in line with her needs,
and he was receiving less care at that point, because his needs were
less).
