""I'm afraid this society is putting money before life. ""
I think you're right, Sun. We appear to have a hospital shortage in my area. Our society needs to get it's priorities straight.
From what we've all heard, millions are constantly being spent on worthless programs. I vote for a country who values life. I read several posts from so called Republicans here on this site, who appeared to be more worried about the cost of medical care for Terri, rather than being outraged over killing her.
I wonder how many of those people cared about the mis-use of Terri's Medical Trust Fund, being used to pay Felos and the rest of those ghoulish lawyers, for the cost of legal fees to convience the court to kill her. (not that Greer needed much in the way of conviencing) :( :(
Hospital officials say they'll stop treating critically ill baby
(4/29/05 - HOUSTON) — The mother of a critically ill baby is trying to figure out where to take her child after being told by doctors at Memorial Hermann Hospital that they would stop treating her in 10 days.
The five-month-old little girl was diagnosed with leukemia just weeks after her birth. Since then, she's undergone a number of different medical treatments and contracted an infection. Doctors and her parents disagree on what should happen next.
The news that Knya Dismute-Howard's doctors believe any more medical treatment would be futile wasn't a surprise to her parents. It only strengthened their resolve
"Her mind is fully there," said the baby's mother, Tamiko Dismuke-Howard. "She knows when we are there. I can't give up because she won't give up."
Tamiko picked up a letter from Memorial Hermann Thursday night. It says simply that doctors believe all medical treatment, other than to ease Knya's pain and suffering, would be useless. Her parents have 10 days to find another hospital for Knya or her medical care will stop.
