Emergency Stay Keeps Schiavo's Feeding Tube In Place
Just for future reference:
If I am ever EVER EVAR comatose, on life support, and have less than 50% chance of becoming a normal, functioning adult of my average age, please, PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE
Do not go to court to keep me suspended in what I can only assume is a limbo worse than the Christian version of Hell. Do not hold candle-lit vigils and demonize those who wish to let me rest. And, for fuck's sake, do not let other people do this.
Once again, for good measure:
If I'm ever comatose, on life support, and have less than a 50% chance of ever being a normal functioning adult of my average age, let me die. I guarantee I'll be much happier in the Summerland than stuck in a broken meat shell.
Thank you.

When I saw the front page of that Metro rag today (1/2 page below the fold) I thought: why do Christians always want to 'save' people with little/no higher brain activity? Or is it the other way around?
In this case, they should just fuck off.
Wait, don't they want her to go to heaven?
With the fundie idiots lining up behind the billionaires as one-issue voters, this makes for a guaranteed source of revenue. Similarly, all the other ailments have cures or potential but in which the treament is simply vastly more profitable than the cure.
The last thing they want at the American Cancer Society is a cure for cancer. I've heard one of their workers say this. This is true of the billionaires who own the pharmaceutical corporations and the rest of the medical industry.
