I believe it! 2 yrs ago I wouldn't have believed it. The article also has a link to info that most states don't require physicians to honor advanced directives. That is scary. The politicians hype it up to get our wishes in writing then we find out that that isn't good enough.

It's worse than just not using a feeding tube or hydration. They often introduce a morphine IV drip "to ease the passing."
The truth is that the morphine speeds the passing, by preventing the patient from struggling to breathe.
