yeah, that's a sad, crazy story. saw today that the husband has filed suit. it seems tho that the hospital is possibly misinterpreting the rules regarding pregnant women, that the statute doesn't extend to brain dead patients. cause...they aren't patients, they're dead. and the woman was without oxygen for some time before the husband found her, and she was never revived. so, that lack of oxygen killed her-i can only imagine the damage to the fetus.

it's unreal. her husband has received death threats. luckily for him, her parents are in complete agreement with him. but that doesn't make this any easier for him or their small child at home.
