Food and water are not "Medical treatment," much less extraordinary.

"Sustenance and hydration" are classified as medical treatments, according to Florida law.


They might be in Alice in Wonderland as well. It is no coincidence that half of the crazy court behaviours to hit the news in recent years comes from Florida. Only California's Ninth Circuit competes. That's pretty sad considering how pathetic the state law and the judiciary is nationwide.

I guess food stanmps, then are a form of medical insurance. Next, a kid will be suspended from school for sharing his candy bar (over the counter medicine) with a pal.

This is nothing new. These laws in many states date back to the Quinlan and Cruzan cases.
