Re: Schiavo autopsy: irreversible brain injury and would not have recovered
Hey listen, there are better ways than this. Aside from the fact that she was ABLE to eat and drink with assistance but this was denied her as she starved over those 2 weeks. Her Mother was warned by a police officer that she'd be immediately arrested if she tried to feed her bottled water. I cant imagine the horror of that and never ever ever would I allow my child to go thru it. The average human uses about 1/1000th (if that) of their brain tissue. I think she was quite well aware on SOME LEVEL about what was happening to her...even if its on the equivalent level of an animal...starving to death is just horrifying. I'm sure she knew she was being slowly killed.
If it was my baby and there was nothing else I could do...if the courts etc cut off all my other options well heck I'd visit the nearest drug-dealer corner and get a sufficient quantity of nicey-nice meds to send her off on a peaceful sleep without starving her for 2 damn weeks.
