Â*not to mention... hes still married to her wtf is he doing with another woman. call me old fashioned. but thats wrong. if she cannot survive on her own without medical help, then yes she should be let go. but that doesnt mean that they can deny her sustinence until she reaches that point.

Well, how does one let her go when the feeding tube was the only thing keeping her alive? Â*She can breathe on her own, and her heart beats on its own, so pulling a respirator isn't an option. Â*And since euthanasia is illegal, can't give her a lethal injection. Â*So the only real way is to take the tube out. Â*It probably could be considred uncruel punishment or undue pain and sufferring, but it really is the only option.

like i said i havent decided if i agree with them taking the feeding tube out or not. but i definatelly disagree with them denying any type of food and water. i understand she cannot feed herself and im sure that she cant chew but denying anything inclunding chapstick? thats insane.
