Those “written in stone” policies were in place for a real medical reason. The lung transplant of the 10 year old was a big mistake. Only after three days her body said noooo and rejected the shaved adult lungs. She was quietly given another transplant with lungs that were compromised with pneumonia. She will never live a “normal” life and more than likely the second set will go bad within the year.

I'm glad we have people like Kathleen Sebelius who get to make rules for “real medical reasons”. Because the day she turned twelve things magically would have changed and she would be assured of life, certainly not.

If you ever need medical help, even if it won't allow you to live a normal life, keep your words in mind. Especially if you fail the mortality test required to get treatment. http://www.westernjournalism.com/obamacare-death-panels-are-here/

Does anyone still remember Terri Schiavo? Just because you wouldn't want to live that way doesn't mean you have the right to tell someone to die that way.
