Florida statutes include a feeding tube as life prolonging procedure thanks to Jim King. This may have been a self serving inclusion since we know that at least one of his parents had cancer.

The patient must meet the Statute definition of pvs. Greer used Dr Cranford's definition of pvs and not the state statute definition.

Euthanasia is illegal in Florida and it is a felony to deny food, water, and necessary care to an elderly or disabled person.

So you tell me if we don't have a direct conflict in our statutes.

Please direct me to Dr. Cranford's definition. I've printed the statutes pages and want to compare them tonight/tomorrow. Many thanks!
