Do YOU support the concept of death panels that get to determine who lives and who dies?
If Isaiah was truly dead, of course it would make sense to remove him from life support. I don’t see how he could have continued to thrive while dead. The decision was made, not based on whether or not he was alive, but based on whether or not his quality of life was high enough to meet some arbitrary and changing standard.
I have to leave now. I’ll check back later.
“Do YOU support the concept of death panels that get to determine who lives and who dies?”
I support the immediate family making an informed decision after being counseled by their doctors.
From your link;
Isaiah was born in the Rocky Mountain House Hospital after a difficult 40-hour delivery. On Oct. 24th, the boy was airlifted to Edmonton’s Stollery Children’s Hospital because Isaiah’s umbilical cord had been wrapped around his neck, resulting in severe oxygen deprivation. He was then placed on a ventilator in the hospital’s neonatal intensive care unit.
The hospital declared Isaiah “brain dead”
What do YOU consider “brain dead?”
