I do not know how the doctors can make at judgment on this case. There is no way this man is in a state of zero brain activity. Doctors do not have all the knowledge to make this call to pull the plug.There is still a God that can preform miracles and as long as the family has hope who are we to pronounce that hope dead. sessestDanielhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15819734244287101806noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9216787076261944467.post-67249199322241315302011-06-11T01:40:37.572-04:002011-06-11T01:40:37.572-04:00If I had had a baby with two heads; I would want t...If I had had a baby with two heads; I would want the right to seperate the babies and let the specialists say with baby would likely live. If the both babies would die than I would take them home and let them live their natural lives as God sees fit.

She went to the hospital to receive a simple procedure of withdrawing excess fluid;asked if she was in any pain; she received an overdose of morphine. During her last 5 hours of life she talked to a priest and saw her family.Induced Coma should have been inscribed on her death certificate. AnneMarie Sawka.

Decades? When will the family be satisfied that he'll never wake up if it's 'against their religion'? <br /><br />Who pays for the people to be kept alive artificially forever? What happens when the money runs out for those that have a chance to actually live their lives again?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
