I have a really good family friend that has been battling cancer for many years now. She has been in the hospital for about 2 weeks now and in the ICU. She was having problems breathing so they put her on a ventilator. The doctors have tried to remover her from the ventilator 3 different times and they have determined that her body has lost the ability to release the carbon dioxide from her body. There is nothing more they can do for her. They told her yesterday that she was terminal and it was up to her to make the ultimate decision to end her life. My family is beside themselves as she is a very good friend of our family and an EXTREMELY Christian woman. Her love for God is amazing and I hope that he takes care of her and ends her suffering.
