It's been 16 years. She can't eat, that's been confirmed by doctor after doctor after doctor.

And people are being arrested outside her hospital just because they want to bring her water.

People were being arrested for trespass, and possibly disorderly conduct. It had nothing to do with what was in their hands. It was a form of protest and they did it with the purpose of getting arrested. Ia ny of them actually thought they'd get through and give her water, they are delusional. But they didn't, they did it to cause a scene.

It's disgusting.

What I find disgusting is people demonizing others based on a distorted, one-sided assessment of the situation.

I've said several times that I honestly don't have an opinion one way or the other about it. The only thing I know is that the right to decide is Michael Shiavos and it should be (and was) upheld.
