Please show me the law that says a probate judge can order the intentional starvation and dehydration (including any water or food, not just by tube) of an incapacitated person.

Did the judge order Terri to be starved and dehydrated, or did he order that the law should be obeyed and that her husband’s wishes – he had the authority – be carried out? The next of kin has the responsibility to curtail medical treatment when that treatment is no longer helping. If this was not the case no one would ever “die” – they (we) would all have our bodies kept technically alive with respirators, feeding tubes or even artificial heart-lung machines.

I'm still waiting for you to show me the law. Again, Michael should have been removed as guardian when it was learned he was living with another woman and had a child with her. The guardian's job is to promote the best interests of the ward. Michael clearly was not doing that. We can argue and argue but you won't change your mind and neither will I. I believe in life and you believe in expediency. Have a good day.
