I also heard the other day that when you're put on life support for too long, your kidneys go, along with other organs......there was probably minimal amount of organs healthy any longer. Perhaps, also, they're in such a state of anger and shock, they may be thinking that this might happen to someone else and they don't want to contribute towards another murder. Also, if they're Catholic, they almost always have an open casket....and didn't want to have this last "normal" view of their daughter taken away from them.....(I don't know their thoughts, of course, just guessing).

BTW, I use the word "murder" because that is how the parents feel about this (I don't think the child was murdered......rather, she died from gross negligence).
