Not that I disagree, but who are "backpedalling" in your opinion?
"In his (April 4th order), Probate Judge Douglas Boyd permitted Gaddy to continue as Magouirk's temporary guardian, but in a formal letter attached to the order stated that her powers were limited. One of the conditions of her guardianship is "To see that the ward [Magouirk] is adequately fed, clothed, sheltered and cared for, and receives all necessary medical attention, including placement in a nursing home, if appropriate."
"Under the terms of an April 4 court order, La Grange cardiologists James Brennan and Thomas Gore, and Dr. Raed Aquel, of UAB Medical Center, Birmingham, are to evaluate Magouirk and decide what treatment would be best and where it should take place."
This is a situation where one family member (granddaughter Beth Gaddy) claimed to have medical power of attorney over Mae Magouirk (turns out she only had financial power of attorney -- did she lie or was she mistaken?) and admitted her to a hospice (on March 28th) and ordered that she be denied nourishment.
When the rest of the family heard about this, they contested it. A hearing was held April 4th, at which time the above orders were issued.
Now, the way I read it, Mae Magouirk has been receiving nourishment since April 4th. If not, someone is in violation of a direct court order to the contrary. Why was this fact ommitted from Glenn Beck's April 8th interview with the cousin?
Where's the story? If we're going to be pointing fingers, let's aim at the granddaughter, not the courts -- Judge Boyd saved this woman.
