If you read the related articles, this is a shocking story that has received no media attention.
- There are hints that foul play on the part of her husband was involved, explaining his eagerness to see her go and refusal to let her receive therapy.
- The husband spent all of the malpractice award intended to pay for her rehabilitation--on his legal fees in the effort to terminate her.
- SHE IS NOT BRAIN DEAD--her heart beats and she breathes on her own, she can say a few words, move her limbs, smile and react to people in the room, and can swallow--yet the judge ordered that no tests be done to see if she can be spoon-fed.
- The judge and court-appointed guardian are preventing the family priest from visiting or administering Catholic sacraments.
- Read the related articles to see more outrageous behavior on the part of lawyers and the courts.
The warnings about the slippery slope involved in giving in to the euthanasia/abortionist cause are coming to pass. This ruling sets a precedent that living conscious human beings can be terminated by a judge's ruling on their 'quality of life', by starvation no less. Thousands of disabled and elderly throughout the country will now be one court order away from death should their guardians find them burdensome.
Now I understand why the courts don't want the Ten Commandments anywhere near the courthouse--this ruling flies in the face of them.

The husband hasn't even allowed them to brush her teeth for the past seven years! And the thing that kills me is that when they come to murder her, she can't even try to fight them off.

I know there were accusations thrown at him. His behaviour seemed to imply alot, doesn't he have a girlfriend also?
