Re: Pathway for the elderly that leads to legal execution

I'm sorry FromOz, I cannot agree that withdrawing fluids from any patient, even hospice patients is admirable.  From the people that I have spoken to, this does nothing but prematurely facilitate death.  When a person nears death, it is they who lose the desire to eat and drink.  The body starts shutting down so to speak.  This is an entirely different story, and the normal process.  Artificial intervention by outsiders deciding when fluids should be removed is an intrusion on one's own process of dying.  As birth, death is a normal process of life, and it should be left that way, it should be respected.

My Best,
