[QUOTE="Habbit Animal, post: 64920253, member: 334222"] Give him a needle like you would your beloved suffering pet and let him find peace. Just as would happen ideally if someone who is terminal wanted peace rather than suffering and loss of dignity. You're not even thoughtful in how you address people who offer an opinion you disagree with. And you think to condemn someone as being thoughtless when they think of mercy, compassion, and peace in letting a boy who is tissue sustained by artificial means and forced to exist rather than live a vibrant life go is worthy of ridicule? Someone who believes true love would let this boy go home to God? Rather than live in a chronic persistent vegetative state while his poor body suffers the effects and his mind has no awareness of that nor life itself? Do you know what a vegetative state is? What the patient endures? Karen Ann Quinlan was one of the most well known persistent vegetative state patients in America. She spent nearly a decade in a hospital bed and died of pneumonia nearly 10 years after she collapsed from a drug and alcohol overdose that caused her to stop breathing for prolonged periods at least twice before paramedics arrived. Quality of life isn't being flesh and bone with no consciousness whatever and machines doing the living for them. Pumping air, clearing bowels and bladder. Quality of life is demonstrated by being a living active participant in the living of it. Rather than a body that is present in the flesh while the mind is completely dead. What should make those who feel compassion for suffering sick is those who argue tissue has no right to mercy because a physical presence that isn't conscious nor physiologically functioning but is pumped up by machines is a sign of life! Who cares that he's suffering while his body is destroyed for 30 years do to the extraordinary measures it takes to keep that what's trying to die away from that absolute. Just as long as the shape of the son is in the room and able to be wheeled around that's all that matters. Keep him in the tomb that is his own body because we want him here! Even though he's not the illusion medical science provides is good enough. Because mercy and peace are wrong!When he died 30 years ago for all intents and purposes it's OK to keep what's left pumped and filled and evacuated by machines! When there is no consciousness there the shell is all that matters! That is selfish. And that is sickening. [/QUOTE]
