"And if you had any doubts whether feeding tubes are artificial life support, the Court continued:

" We conclude that a competent person has the constitutional right to choose or refuse medical treatment, and that right extends to all relevant decisions concerning one's health. Courts overwhelmingly have held that a person may refuse or remove artificial life-support, whether supplying oxygen by a mechanical respirator or supplying food and water through a feeding tube. We agree and find no significant legal distinction between these artificial means of life-support."

If the Court defined a rose as a jeep, the mileage would be zero.

The Court is a fool, and in this case a feeding tube is NOT the same as a respirator.

One simple proof is that Terri swallowed.

Another simple proof, ask any surgeon or surgical resident.

And Felos' exwife is a possible conspirator to this murder and its coverup
because the reading of a radiographic image
should be done by an individual certified by the American Board of Radiology
and not the Florida Scientology Board of Massage and Legal Wh&res.

The Court is a fool,

And to quote Charles Dickens:

"If this be the law, then the law is an ass."
