As you should. If you have no other choice, save as many as you can. It is immoral to allow another human being to come to harm through inaction or action in most circumstances.
And what is "immoral" to one isn't neccessarily to another. I'm sure some would think it worse to allow family to die. Myself, I'm not sure what I'd do in that situation......
Well essentially, a family member is dying anyway. Preventing a loss to you, might also be depriving someone of their father, son, brother, mother, sister, aunt etc. So it depends where you stand on what's selfish or not. I mean I can't be sure I'd vote for my family member, or someone I loved, to die. Infact I'm pretty sure I wouldn't, however I would think like "Wow, that person intended for me to suffer for the choice I've made and yet I've got what I want. Over with, someone is now without a possible loved family member." Which would feel quite shit, but then again, I deal with me and I'm not a sanctifier of life so I'd likely do what I needed to to save who I loved. I guess as shit as it would feel, I'd rather have the death of two strangers to me on my conscience than that of my loved one coz you would notice your loved one is dead. Two people you never even knew existed being dead isn't gonna bother you other than the fact that you had to choose that.
