Not a topic for this thread - but is your home in Tennesee near Alabama? I am plannning to move to Huntsville to be near my kids and grandkids next month.
I'm in the process of moving from E.TN to Dalton, GA and Cohutta thereafter (near Chattanooga).
I gotta go to bed now, it is 6am and I haven't slept tonight.
here is my summary:
The message-
Mae Magouirk…not comatose …not vegetative …not terminal
Why is Hospice LaGrange, Ga. withholding nourishment?
(LaGrange, Georgia) Mae Magouirk is being withheld nourishment and fluids and the provisions of her Living Will are not being honored at the Hospice-LaGrange, (1510 Vernon Street, LaGrange “Troup County” Georgia, 706-845-3905) a subsidiary of the LaGrange Hospital in LaGrange Georgia. Her family is desperately seeking to save her life before she dies of malnourishment and dehydration.
Mae Magouirk IS NOT comatose and she IS NOT vegetative. She is not terminal!
Mrs. Magouirk is a widow having survived her husband and son. Her Grand daughter had financial power of attorney but not healthcare power of attorney. Mrs. Magouirk was not in any way mentally diminished before she went into the hospital for a heart condition. Her heart condition was very serious and instead of helping her grandmother, her grand daughter admitted her into a hospice (wihout legal authority to do so)and told the Hospice to stop feeding her and hydrting her, that it was time for Grandma to see Jesus because she has glocoma and now with the heart condition, who would want to live like that.
The Grand daughter appeared before a Probate judge who is NOT an Attorney, in Georgia , unbeknownst to Mrs. Magouirk's sister and brother who are legally her next of kin. The Judge granted Guardianship of Mrs. Magouirk's to her grand daughter. Mrs. Magouirk's has been starved and dehydrated since March 28th.
Mrs. Magouirk has a living will that states that she is to be provided nourishment and hydration as long as she is not in a coma or persistent Vegatative state. Mrs. Magouirk was not in a coma or PVS when her grand daughter placed he in the Hospice. This is Forced Euthanasia against an elderly person who has a Living Will that states that she wants food and Hydration. Is this America? is this waht we do to our elderly parents and disabled citizens???
