This is also covered by Professor Pope and is in a thread by wagglebee. Thanks, Leslie.

A trial can proceed in a lawsuit filed against DeKalb Medical Center for removing an 18-year-old patient from life support against her mother's wishes.

The Georgia Supreme Court declined to hear an appeal in the lawsuit, meaning a ruling issued last year by the state Court of Appeals stands. That appeals court ruling said the decision to end the life of a patient with no living will and no chance of regaining brain function belongs to families, not hospitals..........

Sam Golubchuk is on our watch list and we scan for updates each morning. We noted the tantrum over the doctor who wasn't allowed to kill his victim and is now limited to kicking his dog and other releases of frustration. Kill lust is hard to squelch.

Wagglebee has a thread on this guy, Dr. AnAnt Kumar.

Winnipeg, Canada (LifeNews.com) -- A Canadian doctor has quit his job at a hospital rather than treat a severely disabled patient. Samuel Golubchuck is a terminally ill elderly patient undergoing treatment in a Winnipeg hospital's ICU and his doctors want to refuse life-sustaining treatment.

Now, the doctor who wanted to impose his values on Golubchuck by forcing him off respirator and feeding tube has resigned rather than continue treatment.....
