It is currently a Law that when end of life decision is made that the only legalwy to perform this is removal of the feeding tube i.e starve them to death. Although deemed humane, the affect left on the loved ones are devastating.
Natalie Marilyn Newton, 21 months old took nine days before passing in her young mothers arms. The emotional effects of the process are inhumane, torturous and cruel.
Why is it that a fatally injured dog is euthanized quickly and painlessly under the premise of humane and a murderer is euthanized under the premise of humane but a two year old baby has to be starved while her family on looks in horror as the system deems this humane and to euthanize inhumane! Change this law and give the decision to deem humane back to the patients and loved ones.
