"JEEZ, they are going to kill her and the excuse for not giving her the HOST by mouth"

The host doesn't go with "last rites". You might read up on it before you comment.

Accepted. I am not Catholic, so I defer to someone who does know.

Another poster was referring to it as LAST RITES, and I assumed that was correct, as they have disconnected her tube and expect her to die. Made sense to me. Since communion is something that (I assume) is not given just before death ritually, it seemed LAST RITES would have been the proper term. I stand corrected.

Thank you for helping me correct my miscomprehension.
