"Oh my God."

Seems to be the role the judge played here.

Social Security...

This probably sounds mean but given her statements I wonder if she was on drugs.

"The mother thinks the baby was the Sun."


"I was told what to do by Sun," she said. "I don't understand all this legal stuff. But please give Sun time to allow Sun to create Sun."

Hudson has not seen her son in more than a month but believes she communicates with him telepathically"

ok

[Sloth]

Since February, the hospital has blocked the media from Hudson's invitation to see the baby, citing privacy concerns.

Whose privacy?

[Howlin]

She was a COMPLETE whackjob; in all my days, I've NEVER seen such an insane woman talking on TV.

After that interview, if I had had the power, I would have kept HER away from that child.

"May God comfort this baby in his loving arms and then help our sad and lost world.

Muleteam1"Thank you

[Howlin]

no room to challenge viewpoints on FR??

No room for personal vacuous attacks.

[Howlin]

Can we leave Hitler out of this conversation?

Are you kidding? That's one of their main talking points!

[Howlin]

She had certainly been on drugs; a whole lot of them.

[itsahoot]

If the baby was born 10 years ago, it would have died naturally months ago. I've walked in these shoes and those of you throwing around the term "killed" and "murder" are unkind at best.

And if heart surgery had not come about, all those people would have died years ago, so I guess they better all check in to a nearby morgue.</sarcasm>

[Skooz]

The maximum check she would have received from SSI would have been $30.00 a month.

[RedBloodedAmerican]

well, it would help if I post on the right thread, wouldnt it?

[Howlin]

Well, since you didn't know that she was entitled to a check, how is it you know the amount?

[Skooz]

If by some freakishly miraclulous feat of medical engineering this baby was able to become a serial murderer, would you support the death penalty?

And you asked me that absurd and ridiculous question because..............???????

[robertpaulsen]

He who has the gold makes the rules.

[Skooz]

Social Security...

Nope. Social Security would not pay one dime to this child or his family.

[DCPatriot]

I was only teasing calling you a newbie.

I welcome challenging viewpoints here.

But just because you work in a hospital environment doens't give you expertise on how a profit and loss statement does or doesn't fit into the decision process.

I can also see the benefits of keeping this baby alive for research and training purposes. It seems that this might have been done as long as they could without causing the baby too much discomfort.

A sad event in any case.

Still "friends"?

[Skooz]

Well, since you didn't know that she was entitled to a check, how is it you know the amount?

Because that is the only amount SSI recipients are due when they are in a hospital or nursing home.
