On the question of pain I can tell you that YES THERE IS HORRIBLE PAIN suffered by not having food and water. My mom had many strokes and a prolonged brain bleed. She was left blind and unable to talk or move any part of her body. Still we fed her and took loving care of her for almost seven years.

Then she suffered another stroke that left her unable to swallow.We could no longer care for her and she was placed in a nursing home. Each day I went there a plate of cold of untouched food would be sitting there. Never any water!!

I was told that if I gave her food or water she would strangle to death. I called in the doctor and made a great fuss over my mom not being fed or given any water. I insisted they put in an IV . Her veins collapsed. I prayed much and placed her in His hands. She was in so much pain all drawn up her little legs and arms could not be straitened out she was down to 60 lbs. She was 89 years old

The doctor told me it was time to let her go. She would not put in a feeding tube. She ordered MORPHINE FOR THE PAIN and ice chips. So for six days she had nothing. She died on the sixth day in my arms.

I could not sleep or eat during that time and still today I can not stand to think of it. My dad died 40 days later in my home in my arms. I know that God forgives us our sin if we ask Him to, but living with guilt of what I did is almost unbearable.

I have read that Michael had the feeding tubes taken out for both of his parents. How can he live with himself if he does this to Terri? I pray that God will take Terri home in His time. She and her family are in my prayers.God bless all you.
