14 (9) "Life-prolonging procedure" means any medical

15 procedure, treatment, or intervention, including artificially

16 provided sustenance and hydration, which sustains, restores,

17 or supplants a spontaneous vital function.



Pacemaker supplants a vital function and extends life beyond what would NATURALLY be without it.
