What a sad story, Rusty. Unbelievable that this is even happening....in TX, of all places!!
From your link...
...Treatment can only be withdrawn only if medical teams can prove that it has become completely futile. If the patient is unable to arrange a transfer to a different hospital for treatment in the allotted 10 days, then medical care is withdrawn.
Texas State Senate member, Republican Bryan Hughes, is currently trying to repeal the directive.
Very sad.
