ubiquitin – I wasn’t really wanting to change the law or thinking about how things should be done legally. I am just remembering that it used to be that people stayed on life support unless the families said otherwise, either on their own or through coaxing. And now that the winds have changed and people are highly discouraged from life support measures, I still find it surprising that the hospital/insurance company/lawyers/whatever are so ruthless, harsh and cold. Even feigning empathy seems to be a thing of the past.
