Is there a detailed accurate article re this story? Only because I heard her brain had been inactive for 5 years. Still a long time yes, but much different than 15. It definitely makes a difference knowing what exactly is true re her condition. Again too many differing reports and opinions in the news!
Again, either way though, I just don't like the removal of the feeding tube to let her die of starvation thing. And not just because of the question in my mind if she would suffer from it, but also dang the family must be going through hell, probably visiting her every day and seeing the physical deterioration of her because of said starvation. We euthenize (sp?) animals, but not humans, unfortunately. But I guess that is another subject. This feeding tube in, feeding tube out is just kind of ridiculous and draining for all involved I'd reckon. Something needs to be decided once and for all whatever it is, which I suppose may happen soon enough. They say she may still live a week without the feeding tube (it's been out 6 days right?).
