Life less person?

This doesn't have to be a hard decision. If they have brainwave activity, you got to keep them going. If not, they aren't really there anyway, why keep the body alive. This is an emotional decision regardless. Go in with these parameters then lose the whatif's and regrets. Dying is part of living. Life is about living. We should concentrate on that.

I always thought that it would be easy. After all, none of us want our loved ones to live with constant pain and without any quality of life. When I was placed in the situation myself, it wasn't as easy as I thought. A nurse suggested that my husband should be disconnected from life supports and all that I could think of at the time was how much I loved him and how much I wanted him to live. I had a conversation with the doctor and learned that things were not as bleak as the nurse portrayed things (a whole other story). My husband is still challenged but is miles better from where he was on that awful day in 2009. We have a long journey ahead of us but I realize that this will never be an easy decision.

I don't think it is in our power to play God. If he was for a long time sticked on a bed in coma that means that God already had a plan from him and that only the hummans are trying to change it. If it is ethical or not i cannot say.
