I wonder if the care of the baby might be the reason someone would want her out of the picture. There are certain governmental, financial benefits to those whose parents have died.

We do need to derail this death culture.

How can death be preferable to life?

How sad. I do not understand how removing a feeding tube can ever be considered as an option.

Lauren's family is asking for everyone to pray for her, especially this week.

 

Lauren Marie Richardson is a twenty-three year old woman who suffered an anoxic brain injury after an accident on August 28, 2006.

  Lauren's life is endangered by a recent court decision made by Master Sam Glasscock III, by which her feeding tube will be removed.  As a disabled citizen, she is defenseless against the court-approved, imposed act of dehydration and starvation intended to cause her death.

  Lauren gave birth to a baby girl during this ordeal, and has not been allowed to see her child.  This little baby girl needs a chance to know her mother.  We appeal to each person with compassion and love to understand why we wish to bring Lauren home and care for her.

  Lauren's situation is greater than you can imagine.  Her story should be told, and we pray that it has a happy ending.

Lauren is....

....Responsive

....She is NOT brain dead

- she is disabled

....Her father wants to care for

             her at home.

....The courts won't let him.

Prayer  Request:  Please remember us in a special way this

week since critical decisions are being made.  More to come...

Heroin??? This girl was a mess. Perhaps the mother should give the girl to her father. But the mother should not have to pay a dime. Let the father take care of her. The state should not pay either. Congratulations Dad. Hopefully she will rid herself of that heroin problem. Good Lord! What will the father do when the insurance runs out?
