Those on the "let her go" side often accuse us on the other side of being too emotioanlly attached, and in some ways they have a point. Yet it runs both ways. Over the course of these threads, a common theme emerges:

When pressed, we find that many of the pro-Micheal people have had an experience with an end-of-life issue (usually involving a parent)
We ALL bring our own baggage to this.
Except of course for the ivory-tower libertarian nutjobs who dispassionately opine that government should not ever do anything, under any circumstances.
So true!
You have called it exactly.
Those that think it is dignified to be starved to death only have academic knowledge rather than real life experience.
