I also take meds for hypertension. I take a baby aspirin along with them.

Why are these acceptable and not a feeding tube?

Feeding tubes have been used for thousands of years. Their recent success is primarily due to the development of plastics and antibiotics.

Feeding tubes snake through medical history

Yes, I also would like an answer to that. Why is it acceptable for you to take aspirin and medicine for hypertension, but unacceptable for Eluana Englaro to receive food and water through a tube, and to be kept warm with blankets and shelter? I’ve been waiting quite a while for an explanation from you about your objection to her being kept warm.

It is futile to argue these points. I will not be persuaded to join your little club, nor will you find my thoughts acceptable. I believe my faith in God is more important than your faith in medicines or technologies, no matter how long they have been used, nor when/how applied or withheld.

God is eternal, while all this is temporal. His kingdom is Spiritual, not flesh and blood! If your faith is in the tubes, it is misplaced. You should be anointing with oil, and laying on hands, with faith in the outcome. Anything less is ...not in God's will!

I'll hope to see you on the other side! I know I'll be there. God promised!
