Are you going to seriously argue that because of Terri that a majority of hospice patients are being euthanized? Or even a significant percentage?

I don't think you've had experiences which comprise a representative sampling of hospice companies. JMO

The problem with Terri Schiavo’s end of life was the interference by lawyers and judges, not hospice. Judges can’t write medical orders, but they can - and did - order Sheriffs’ deputies to restrain nurses and doctors from providing care.
