it *may* be better for her to be allowed to die... that's a matter of personal opinion... but to me, to "allow her to die" by removing her feeding tube and starving to death is cruel. By that method, it will take several days or weeks for her to pass on and starvation is a horribly painful way to die for anyone . According to one thing I read, she can feel pain, evidenced by her groaning when she has a muscle cramp and needs more painkillers. I'm not one to judge whether someone's existence is worth prolonging or not... i hope I never am in a position to make that type of decision for a loved one. But I definitely don't agree that causing a prolonged, painful death is passive. If anything, why can't they just allow the machines that are keeping her heart going to be turned off?
