Thats a vital point. Food and water are not medical treatments, theyre ordinary care, no matter how they are redefined. And the culture of death continues to lie and say otherwise.

One day I was talking to a doctor friend about Terri Schiavo and asked how they could consider food and water medical treatment.
His answer was that as her feeding tube was a medical device, they could discontinue its use. Pretty callous in my opinion.
He did not see anything abnormal about it.

And we wonder why America has fallen, is fallen, and will likely stay fallen until we the people return to the faith of the founders. That is likely a bridge too far, sad to say.

A friend of a friend died this same way. She begged her husband to let her spend one more Christmas with her children. However, he wanted to unburden himself quickly.
Someday, there will be justice and people like that will be held accountable for murder.

I can't accept that a person is “terminal” if he/she is strong enough to survive for 8 weeks without sustenance.

Pray for the elderly and the infirm. I just visited a friend and her husband today. Her husband will probably not make it through the weekend. They were medicating him every hour to keep him comfortable. The Hospice nurse came in to check on him while I was at the nursing home.
