This is not a good subject for me to get started on really so I'll try to be fairly brief. My views are strong on this subject. My mother had a massive stroke which left her comatose and virtually brain dead. She was on life suppport for nine days and the hospital nagged me constantly about pulling the plug. They called me at home. They plagued me when I was at the hospital. It was the hardest decision I ever had to make. I just don't think any of us have the right to choose over life and death. It's just a very difficult topic. I just couldn't believe how insensitive the hospital staff was regarding my mother's condition. I don't think it would have been so easy for them either if it had been a member of their family.
