Not "deserving of Death",but deserving of RELEASE.I sure would not want to waste away in this manner,or watch my loved ones do so.For the so-called "religious" people who rant and rave about the "sanctity" of life-I say if "God" wanted them alive,you wouldn't need the machine to keep them that way.(This only applies,of course,to hopeless cases like Schiavo & Quinlan)
