Robyn Shapiro, an attorney for Marilyn's guardian, told the LaCrosse Tribune newspaper during a Tuesday court hearing that she is “functionally equivalent” to a persistent vegetative state and her medical history supports the position. NO, she had a stroke.

Shapiro is simply setting up a case for an appeal and that he is a well known euthanasia advocate who is trying to expand the number of cases when lifesaving medical treatment can be withdrawn. Another leftist lawyer trying to achieve through the courts what they cannot achieve in the legislature.

Pre-birth murder or euthanasia - they are both murder. If Shapiro gets his way, and Doctors like Krevorkian proliferate, who knows where they will stop? A slippery slope if I ever saw one!

Case over, already, mostly!!
In a surprise move Friday in La Crosse County Circuit Court, attorneys for the guardian withdrew a request to stop life-sustaining treatment. They asked La Crosse County Circuit Judge Scott Horne to dismiss the case without prejudice, leaving the door open to refile the case at a future date.
