Trust me, it is not biologically normal for a body to be made to function on a respirator.

The child in question was kept alive. Now study that for a minute, “kept” alive.

If your line of reasoning was correct, then the body would be incapable of functioning with a respirator. Thousands of people are “kept” alive everyday.... maybe you should study your own statement... they are kept alive through CPR, antibiotics, artifical organs, kidney dialysis, chemotherapy, radiation treatment, blood pressure medications, the list is endless. Just because some treatments are acute in nature and others are chronic in nature does not diminsh there effects on sustaining life. There is a bigger picture here.... who decides what “normal” is, who decides whose life is important to save and whose is not.....do we give the government the power to make these decisions out of concern for the “common” good or do we leave it in the hands of the individual?
