"As it happens, a major test case for that law was resolved just last week -- with a baby's death.
Leigh Hopper writes in the Houston Chronicle: "The baby wore a cute blue outfit with a teddy bear covering his bottom. The 17-pound, 6-month-old boy wiggled with eyes open and smacked his lips, according to his mother.
"Then at 2 p.m. today, a medical staffer at Texas Children's Hospital gently removed the breathing tube that had kept Sun Hudson alive since his Sept. 25 birth. Cradled by his mother, he took a few breaths, and died.
"Sun's death marks the first time a hospital has been allowed by a U.S. judge to discontinue an infant's life-sustaining care against a parent's wishes, according to bioethical experts. "
This is disgusting and people in other countries must be shaking their heads in disbelief over this. I mean with an infant you just never know, he could have developed, they still weren't sure. This was because the family couldn't pay, how awful.
