The debate is based on faulty assumptions. "No heroic measures" does not include a feeding tube and water.
It refers to respirators and kidney dialysis machines and active CPR, etc.
When in doubt, err on the side of life. God is watching each of us choose sides.
Some are choosing poorly.
I do not feel I am making a poor judgment. I demand that my husband speak for me and not my Mother. My beloved knows my wishes and frankly it will not happen to me but there are some who are young and do not make their wishes known. Should congress get involved, I say no. These are my beliefs they are no more better or worse then yours or other's on this thread.
I appreciate learning, I appreciate the passion on both sides. I know what heroic methods are a cancer survivor. I also realize she is not on any machine but she does rely on folks to make sure she receives the needed to nutrients to support ability to live.
It's just a website, doc. Nobody here has any input whatsoever into anything that's happening in Florida.
Let's not get carried away.
