I agree. Letting my father go after Alzheimer’s had destroyed his mind so thoroughly he could no longer swallow was a blessing, not a curse. Legally, it’s up to the husband. Let the husband decide.

What if the husband stands to get $1million upon wifes death and he already has kids with another woman? I'd say there is a conflict in interest there.

What if the husband stands to get $1million upon wifes death and he already has kids with another woman? I'd say there is a conflict in interest there.

There's a court case on this one. It's being investigated. If you can find evidence of such a thing, then post it. Otherwise, don't bring me this crap. If the family wants her left on life-support, are they going to ruin themselves financially to do so? Or is the husband expected to do so on their wishes? Or is the taxpayer footing the bill for her continued care? Not every husband who agrees with the doctors to take his wife off life-support is an opportunist or a murderer. There comes a time when you have to let them go.

Now, I'm not saying that there isn't problems in this case, as I have no idea. As above, now that there's a court case, it will be investigated. This knee-jerk reaction anytime this happens that automatically vilifies the husband is wrong.
