What slippery slope?
Slippery slope? There is no slippery slope... isn't that what we were told? Well, whoever said that Terri Schindler's was a unique case and that if it did ever happen again it would be rarely, is a LIAR! And those that made that claim knew they were lying the whole time they were allowing Terri to be murdered.
Ron Panzer, president and founder of Hospice Patients Alliance, a patients' rights advocacy group based in Michigan, told WND that what is happening to Magouirk is not at all unusual."This is happening in hospices all over the country," he said. "Patients who are not dying, are not terminal, are admitted [to hospice] and the hospice will say they are terminally ill even if they're not. There are thousands of cases like this. Patients are given morphine and ativan to sedate them. If feeding is withheld, they die within 10 days to two weeks. It's really just a form of euthanasia."
We have forgotten the lessons of history and cannot, or refuse to acknowledge that history does and is repeating itself. We do this at our own peril.
How old are you? Do you have any money saved up at all? Are you sure your children, or spouse, or brother or sister would do anything to keep you alive or adhere to your wishes?
How sure are you?
