Colorado’s Children’s hospital is at it again. Remember Dylan Walborn?
(Starved for 24 days because he had seizures and folks didn’t
want them to get worse!)
2 1/2 pound baby doing well, according to parents.
Hospital demanding heart surgery. Folks researched risk and
decline. Hospital demands spinal tap to determine whether
there is infection. Folks fear too traumatic. Baby has no fever.
Judicial hearing today to remove parental rights (parents have
no knowledge of where - hence no representation!)
Pray.

Rhodes, Greece (LifeNews.com) -- A new international study finds that about forty percent of patients like Terri Schiavo who are supposedly in a persistent vegetative state are misdiagnosed and another fifty percent of them recover from their situation. The study finds the patients in question were in a minimally conscious state and could improve.
The studies, conducted by researchers in Belgium, found that the level of misdiagnosis has not decreased in the last 15 years. There were presented at the European Neurological Society Meeting in Greece.
Dr. Steven Laureys, from the Coma Science Group at the University of Liиge, stressed during the meeting that the vegetative state in a significant proportion of patients admitted to intensive care may be transitory.
"The study underlines the importance of extreme caution in any decision to limit the life chances of patients during the acute phase of a vegetative state," he said.
