Only Food & Water
No Medical treatments. I don't want to suffer anymore. Or I don't want grandma to suffer any more. No Medical treatments. What is a medical treatment? Is oxygen or air? Is Food? Is water? Is a bed? How far do you define treatment?
I can very much understand Food and Water to be defined as Medical Treatment (as long as it is administered by a Doctor or Nurse). But I would wonder if you could go further. The Hospital provides a bed for Grandma. The Hospital provides Monitors. The Hospital sometimes will provide an oxygen Mask. Is this Treatment? (I would also state most Hospitals pump in purified air.)
No Medical Treatment. Take them out of the Hospital to save a bed. They are using good clean air. This is a waste of resources. No Medical Treatment. Just remember that also means no drugs.
I can understand the with holding of some medical treatment. But one must weigh the tough choices. I always remember Patch Adams, "You treat a disease you win, you lose. You treat a Person I guarantee you win every time." All persons need life. Not just life in a Hospital bed but truly life in Christ. Life is a gift he gives us. We throw it around as though it where our pet. If it gets to rough Just kill me. But truth be told we need the burdens you give us. Those burdens help us grow.
