Ga. law allowing doctors to unplug life support challenged -- Family says doctors at Emory Eastside Medical Center was prepared to end with or without their consent
Alicia Fennell had just one hour to save her husband's life. Doctors at Emory Eastside Medical Center in Snellville said he was brain dead and being kept alive by life support. She and her children doubted the diagnosis, sensing that somehow Donald Fennell was still aware. The hospital was preparing to pull the plug at 5 p.m. Dec. 4, with or without the family's consent, but a last-ditch effort to stop the hospital was about to play out at the Gwinnett Justice and Administration Center. The struggle between hospital and family occurred because the Fennells, like many people, didn't know Georgia law leaves the final decision on discontinuing life support for brain-dead patients to doctors, not family members.
The family will bury Donald Fennell on Saturday in Daytona Beach, Fla., near his home in Palm Coast. What they cannot bury is a lingering frustration with a hospital they say treated them unfairly and a law that leaves families out of the loop. The hospital declined to discuss specifics of the case because of patient confidentiality, but issued a statement saying, "we are confident, based on the assessment of numerous physicians who consulted on this patient's care, that he has received the highest quality care available."................
