Suffering...

It seems like the "other people" making the decision want to put the child out of THEIR misery. I have doubts about how much that baby feels or whether it's a problem for hi. Patients suffer while everybody and their second cousins debate about their fate. If you argue that the best thing for this child is a mercy killing, well, get out of the way. I say give this non-painful procedure a try.

Seriously, isn't this "death panel" thing what those opposed to Obamacare were worried about? Would you want somebody telling you you had no say in your loved one's treatment?
