OMG, I read the first paragraph. I can see I’m going to need to take a few breaks while reading that horror story. Is there a thread about here?
For some reason, I can’t get that file to open on my computer. Is there any other way to get it?
I had a baby in that hospital feb 7, 2007. Words fail me.
A couple times, the charges mention "The issue of death was material to Mr. Jacobs’ decision." My initial response was "Well duh. Nobody would consent to having organs harvested from their child while he was still in recovery." Then I thought about some of the nasty comments I've seen on Free Republic in the debates about the right to life. There are still people posting here who think it's right to call somebody a turnip and kill them just because they have a brain injury. I've seen a couple people talk about having a hand in the deliberate killing of their own family members, because they have a brain injury or disease. I'm sure these parents are typical in their love for their son, but unfortunately there are some people whose love is conditional.
