A very difficult case. However the way she was killed was completely inhumane and a total insult to somebody who was bulimic. Imagine going through that. Medical science has advanced far enough that we don't need to let people needlessly suffer especially while they're dying.

@deborahsuewho Geeez - if being feg via a tube is grounds for ending life, we could wipe out half of the population in nursing homes.

@deborahsuewho But wasn't she beeing fed through a feeding tube not through the mouth?

@shortcake92589 She died naturally only because she was unable to swallow. If she were able to swallow she'd be alive today. This has nothing to do wth religion, it is about the human rights of the disabled

@shortcake92589 You would die too if you were locked in a room for 13 days with no food or water. Locking someone up and leaving them to die is an unnatural death. Murder.

[shortcake92589]

@ItssBrian Murder is ending someones life unnaturally. She died naturally because the science that was keeping her alive ceased. Big difference.

[shortcake92589]

So why didnt all the great prayers work? Without science, she would have died. It was her time to die. Whether you believe in a "survival of the fittest" theme, or God's choice thing, obviously she wasn't meant to live. The doctors and the courts aren't evil. They recognized her as brain dead, and in a permanent vegetative state, which, despite what this deceiving man is saying, she did not appear as merely a retarded person in the end. They determined she was not in fact "alive".
