Life is not precious to those who put financial matters ahead of conscience. My own sister, who is a Socialist, is angry with her MIL for not wanting to sign a DNR. I told her ‘maybe she’s not ready to go yet’. The MIL is ill but retains her mental faculties. I was speechless at my sister’s lack of conscience. But I am being redundant. My sister is a Socialist.

Yes. She was telling me that ‘responsible people sign the DNR when they are fully competent’. I told her my husband and son would never ‘pull the plug’. They are pro-life. My sister’s MIL is elderly and has serious health problems but she still is mentally clear. And I am being ‘irresponsible’ for not signing a DNR myself. The Culture of Death still has lots of control with Zero still in the WH.
To: Mercat
PS-She also threw out ‘elderly people use entirely too much of our health care resources’. I should have pointed out to her that she is now 56. That term ‘elderly’ is creeping up on her fast. I wonder how all these Socialists will feel when they are the burden?

This is such wonderful news that this baby will receive the medical attention his parents wish.
I was at the New Cathedral in St. Louis this past Sunday for the “Rite of Election” and shook Archbishop Carlson's hand. I'm sure he was instrumental in accomplishing this. He is going to be a great leader for St. Louis.

It won’t affect administration democrats; they have exempted themselves and union buddies.

Life is not precious to those who put financial matters ahead of conscience. I agree with you, but from what I've read about this Baby Joseph case it seems that the Canadian doctors refused to do the tracheotomy because it isn't really an effective "treatment" for the child at all. I think the only purpose of it is to enable the child to breathe without a ventilator.
