And how rational is it to use a feeding tube to pro-long the suffering of a person in a hopeless and helpless state of existance indefinitely?

She was suffering? And you know this because....you can channel thoughts like George Felos and John Edwards? She was not hopeless and she definitely was not helpless, as her parents had every desire to "help" her.

Are you serious?

You can't talk. You can't move. You can't eat. You can't go to the bathroom. You can't wash yourself. Somebody has to wipe your butt daily. You can't cover yourself if you're cold. Of even ask somebody to do so.
And you just lay there day after day, month after month, year after year in this state with nothing but a feeding tube sustaining you.

And you tell me I need to "channel thoughts" to know that such an existance would be a state of suffering.
