You know, the part that says a patient may refuse medical treatment?

Go read Judge Greer's death order. It did not say that medical treatment should be removed. It said that all hydration and nutrition should be stopped. It was a state-enforced death sentence, not a removal from life supporting medical equipment. Go read it.

"It said that all hydration and nutrition should be stopped."

Not his original court order in 2000.

The one to which you're referring was in response to a requested "experimental procedure", or so it was ruled because of a mistake made in the submission of the request.

It was never resubmitted.
