Local paper confrimation. This is important. AND, since she's being fed by mouth, she isn't vegetative, is she? Another confirmation?
Yes, to me the local story confirms the key points. She is in hospice and is not being provided with enough nutrition and hydration to sustain her life.
It is unfortunate that the WND article's headline may be misleading. It seems Mae did not have a feeding tube. (It's not clear to me whether she did in the hospital or not; if so, their title may be accurate.) Thus, the granddaughter didn't yank it, but denied the insertion of one. But I have to check on that.
In any case, the result is the same: Mae is being allowed to "slip away" through inadequate fluids and nutrition.
