Many thanks, Lesforlife, for bringing this travesty to my attention. This is a very disturbing story personally, scares the gizzard out of me, that we can allow such a murder and make it look nice and good.
We could only wish our own son was doing as well as Dylan at that age, yet we fought naturally to keep him alive. He brought us much joy throughout those many years, even though worse off, yet his own joy shone through vastly longer than any doctor would say, for twenty six years. Not in our darkest moments of dispair could we ever imagine what this sad set of parents justified.
What is our world coming to that we can glorify such happy horse felos?
It is a bone chilling story, in what they did and their glorification of the heinous deed and a powerful reminder of the death cult trying to crowd around us.
Two parents face an agonizing test of faith and love for their son (and fail miserably....)

This is Euthanasia at it's best. They make it seem so compassionate to let a little boy starve to death. Truly sad.
Heart valves are said to fetch up to $7,000 each in the US, and skin $1,000 per square foot. A body could be worth about $150,000, according to Art Caplan, Professor of Bioethics at the University of Pennsylvania.
Parts from a single body could fetch up to $150,000

I cannot let go of this story. I posted on #1317 what some parents did to a young kid and got praised for it:
Dave Walborn lifted his son upright, all 32 pounds of him, slipped one hand behind his lolling head and gazed into the open but vacant blue eyes. He spoke out loud the words that would move him and the boy's mother, Kerri Bruning, one step closer to an excruciating decision.
"Dylan, it's OK if you want to go," he said. "I don't want you hanging on for me."
He heard no response, felt no mystical vibe. But with the sound of his own voice, Dave opened the door to a possibility:
Can we let the Denver Post get away with cutting heroes out of slimy dough with evil cookie cutters?

I read that story and wanted to throw up. In fact I didn't even ping anyone to it. This poor kid lasted 24 days. While I can certainly understand the severity of Dylan's health problems, I will never understand the conscience decision to starve the kid to death. Didn't they understand that nature would have taken its course, probably sooner than later?
Having experienced a sick child, I can't imagine what went through your mind when you read this story. The slippery slope is getting a little slicker.
I am just now returning to FR from Christmas visits. Dylan's story makes me very sad about what a world we're in. I just don't understand.
