When the hospice people came to my Aunt's house to assist in her passing, they too, were not giving water. My cousins insisted that their Mom be given water. And she was. Along with increasing amounts of morphine for this (painless, my arse) death process.

Altho in fairness, cancer was eating her up from the inside...so that may have been a large part of the pain.

She has refused food for several days before she was even brought home and was given some kind of nourishment thru an IV.

That was stopped just before she came home from the hospital. The hospice worker has the morphine, the wet sponges, a stethoscope that allows them to know when the bowels shut down, the watch the kidney catheter (sp?), and can pretty much predict time of death when the sounds within the intestinal tract stop.

The morphine was given to her upon her tongue.... guess that means, according to Michael, that Terri does not get any morphine...NOTHING IN HER MOUTH, RIGHT? ( Why...................she might aspirate! )

She can't SWALLOW, RIGHT? That is why she has drowned so frequently in her own 2 quarts of saliva each day . RIGHT????????????

My GOODNESS...for Terri...ALL THEY HAVE TO DO IS JUST CAP IT OFF OR NOT PUT FOOD INTO IT! THIS IS ALL SUCH A SICK SICK STUPID OUTRAGEOUS TORTUROUS BUNCH OF EVIL!

WHY PUT HER THROUGH THE TUBE REMOVAL???? WHAT IS THE POINT? To make SURE no one slides a little food in it illegally?

These are the SICKEST BUNCH of IMMORAL CREEPS EVER!
