I'm back from my formal high school reunion and have seen many things
All through high school I had short hair or buzzcut hair so it was shocking to see me with long hair and a pony tail. Also when I was in high school there was this very bitchy, elitest, snooty girl that didn't like me. Before my class graduated she was in a horrible car wreck that was her fault and I thought it was Darwin's method at work. Her parents made the dicission to keep her alive at all cost despite what the results would be. I saw her today and she's a parapalegic who can't eat, walk, talk or go to the restroom. I couldn't help to feel bad for her and completly pissed off at her selfish, religously insane parents. I made the decision not to say anything to her Catholic fundamentalist parents for destroying her completly by making her suffer because of the Pope's religous superstition. I had more respect for crippled animals than her own parents had for her.

2. I have a friend who became paraplegic from his own doings
he was given a 5% chance of survival, I was mad at his wife for keeping him alive, after a year in the hospital he came home, his wife divorced him at the worst of times. But he battled back, still in a wheel chair, he need constant help with every thing, but he does still have his wit, and I'm glad he's still here.

4. After reading most of "Johnny got his gun" though
I belive you're doing the patient a favor by putting them out of their misery.
