Still Dying of Thirst: Joshua (Kulendran Mayandi)

After a long discussion with our legal counsel concerning the possible legal avenues that could be taken to stop the dehydration of Joshua (Kulendran Mayandi) the Euthanasia Prevention Coalition has determined that a legal action is possible.

For those who have not followed the story of Joshua, he is a pastor of a small pentecostal church in Brampton Ontario who is currently in the Brampton Civic Hospital (William Osler Health Centre) where IV fluids, nutrition and medicine has been completely withdrawn since August 17.

The problem is that the cost of a legal intervention, which may or may not be successful, is significant and the Euthanasia Prevention Coalition needs to know if we will have the financial support of our donors and members to go ahead with this endeavour?

Our original goal was to convince the court appointed Substitute Decision Maker (SDM) to change his mind and have the IV re-inserted.

Time is running out. If action is not taken soon, Joshua will begin to die.

You need to know that Joshua was a loved pastor. The members of the Church have been with him constantly.

I can’t stand this! I meant to email yesterday, I will right now.

People are going to have to get vigilante about these murders!

I just emailed the hospital and the Ontario Board of whatever it is this email, not as good as BykrBayb’s but the best I could do right now:

Dear Sir or Madam,

Please - stop the murder by dehydration and starvation of Joshua (Kulendran Mayandi) . I have read three articles about his situation and he is not dying, he can live in his condition, and your decision to with hold any fluids or nutrition is akin to the Nazi program of killing the “useless eaters”. Please stop his murder now and allow this man nutrition and fluids.

Do not blacken your reputation like this. It is inhumane, cruel in the extreme and is not going unnoticed.

Kind regards,
my name

The good pastor finally got a drink after 9 days without!

The Canadian standard is that one must make a “capable”
request for food and drink!!!

I will read that, didn’t know he was fed! How he could have survived that long with nothing I cannot imagine. Maybe some nurses gave him something?
