question
Just a thought. If the comatose person is unsaved
and bound
for Hell, would you send him there, or would he be
more
comfortable in a coma? If there was less than one
tenth of one
percent of a chance that he would ever regain
consciousness
and be able to repent, would it be worth
waiting? Or have you
already taken all that into account in your previous
responses?

Terry, Why is it that whenever we have differing
opinions, that you decide that I am the one with no discernment? Could it
ever be you? Just wondering…..J Izzy

Ethics question
Terry, It seems to me that the selfish thing to do
is to cling to someone by interfering in postponing their death at their own
expense. (In certain situations.) I’ve probably
taken care of more ill people than you have, and I know what that means, and
that is not the issue. Playing God can work both ways. I
don’t think we should judge people who want to stop that game.

There are sins of commission, and sins of
omission. Failing to care for another as yourself is a sin of
omission.
Nature does not take it's course. God put
you here and it should be God who decides when to take you out. He
will take you when He is ready, tube or no tube. When you make that
decision, you usurp His authority. You play God.
When you start considering how unfair it would be
to spend your life caring for someone who will never be able to thank
you or even acknowledge your presence, you are dwelling on self. Self
is not what it is all about. When you do it for the least of
His, you do it for Him.
Think about those things.

Terry,
I am not talking about
“snuffing†anyone.Â
I’m talking about ceasing from medical intervention to
keep them alive, and letting nature take its course. Quite
the opposite of “snuffing outâ€Â.

Then I take it that
your conscience would not bother you if you snuffed your hubby a day too
early?

Terry, You can only
make decisions upon the information you have available today.
Can’t look back tomorrow. Besides that, new medical
developments take years of R&D, and nothing just pops up unexpectedly
overnight. Izzy

Just something to muddy the thought process.
What if you pull the plug on your patient today, and tomorrow they find
the cure that was never available before? Could happen.

You

haven't come to a conclusion. Laura
