What happened to Mr. Hickson is unusual only because the cirumstances and the nature of his death are being publicized. This type of “triage” happens every day in America’s hospitals. Agressive care is commonly withheld and “comfort” care is implemented. Comfort care means the patients are expected to die and they do before there is too long a length of stay in the acute care facility. Since the Roe v Wade decision in 1973, life has become cheaper in America and wherever abortion has been legalized.

John Lewis, the celebrated black Congressman and “civil rights icon” has just died. He is being eulogized and canonizd in the MSM. Yet for decent people , it is appropriate that he, like many other American icons, be cancelled. John Lewis throughout his career supported abortion on demand and did nothing to object to the wholesale killing of black pre born human life. He made no objections to his fellow liberals locating their abortion clinics in black neighborhoods. Frankly this man was cancelled long before he died. He made no public repentance for his malfeance.

“..Comfort care means the patients are expected to die ..”

I’ve also read that giving permission for DNR, even before we are sick, can lead to patients getting less care, so I will not allow it for my loved ones, or myself. Betsy McCaugh wrote a great article about DNR a few years ago.

So very sad about Mr. Hickson, and yes, there are countless people that we do not hear about. Why is this murder legal? Why are the murderers not in jail?
