And Here We Go Again

Update: this is a hearing (which doesn't seem warranted under law considering how many times the same request has been denied) to ask a court to review the review of whether to order an injunction that would reattach her feeding tube.

A Federal Appeals Court has granted the Schindlers' request to ask yet again for a re-hearing. This is the first stumble which I'm afraid will lead to more.

If she doesn't die today, I suspect we're about to subject her to even more misery. Because this won't be over. Are we really going to draft and redraft and redraft legislation for one case when lots of people die as she's doing in this country everyday? If she doesn't die during this session, it's very likely - even if the completely toss out the husband's legal rights here - she will die this way later.
