The mother was in the house, making breakfast...
Why kill the daughter? He should just killed himself only...
Yes, she was not going to live for too long...But, shooting her dead?
It is a disturbing story...
It is tragic. If she was terminal and suffering, the ethical thing to do was give her as much pain medication as necessary to keep her comfortable, even if the meds shortened her life.
What is the point of the amputation if the illness is terminal? That would seem to be adding more misery to an already miserable situation.
I am not going to judge... I can’t even wrap my mind around having a little girl in pain and dying. I can’t for a moment even let myself think about it. I would imagine the father may have been pushed psychologically over the edge knowing the end result and feeling he would “go” with her rather than her going “alone”. Flame if you want.. I just can’t condemn a man that I pity. Prayers for this entire family and may Our Lord welcome them into His arms.
It is a disturbing story...
Not saying I agree with what was done but when you lose hope.........................
So the question is why did they lose hope and what can we do for similar situations?
Poor family. The guy couldn’t watch her suffer any more and couldn’t deal with what he’d done. Horrible. I thank God I’ve never had to face a situation like that.
That said. what’s the point in amputating a leg if the cancer is terminal? Insurance will pay? Not enough info.
In a Christless world, it’s the pragmatic thing to do.
What was she making?
When I was in high school, there was a news story about a woman who wanted to kill her sick son.
The son was in a wheelchair.
She felt she couldnt deal with it any more.
The son didnt want to die.
He fought her and lived.
Life can be overwhelming.....for awhile.
Its hard to be brave at 3 in the morning, in the rain, when you are cold, tired, scared and hungry.
But.....get some sleep and a hot meal and a sunny day and things look better.
Men are more conscious and tend to suffer more as a result, so to speak. That is why they act up as opposed to lesser souled people who see no evil nor good in life. Having a soul and not being able to handle it is a cause for problems.
What’s with the demented use of words in the headline?
