Do not get sick in Texas! You have no right to live, no due process, no appeal, if the hospital death panel decides your quality of life is not worth sustaining.
The Texas statute, section 166.046, has come to light because Chris Dunn, a conscience, communicative patient will have his breathing machine turned off, nutrients cut off and will be administered a dose of morphine and one other drug that will take just three to five minutes to kill him, if his lawyers cannot get the courts to stay this death sentence.
Christopher David Dunn, a former peace officer, as well as a Homeland Security officer, is 46 and on life sustaining machines at Houston Methodist Hospital. He is fully conscience and can communicate by making hand gestures, much like sign language, and nodding his head. When he became sick he had no health insurance. A noncancerous mass was found by his small intestine and pancreas, which is affecting his liver and kidneys. For eight weeks he has been in the hospital.
Follow his story on the next page, as he literally fights for his life, because apparently, without insurance he does not deserve to be helped, it is cheaper to kill him according to Houston Methodist Hospital.
This could’ve easily been me a few years ago
You are correct…no insurance. Apparently, Obamacare did away with indigent care???? No matter, it IS murder.
THE ALL MIGHTY DOLLAR IS MORE IMPORTANT THEN LIFE. We saw this coming and no one would believe it.
Oh yea they will! Under Obummercare they can make whatever decision they want. I have a friend that has bone cancer and needs a bone marrow transplant. In the old days (5 yrs ago) they would do what is necessary to save your life even if you owed them money for the rest of yours. They won’t even think about doing his transplant now unless he pays he insurance deductible which is $100,000. So in this case, $400,000 isn’t good enough money for them. Makes me sick at these asshats…
MURDER!!!
He could contact MOLST medical order for life sustaining treatment. This plan is set so the doctors can’t kill you. He needs it!
This is pathetic for this hospital to remove all life saving equipment so that this man will die. He wants to live and obviously is currently alert enough to make his own decisions. We fight against abortion but not for this man. As a 35 yrs retired nurse we take a vow to care and help patients. If this was your family member, would you want him to die?? He’s not brain death and if he becomes brain dead then we need to make him comfortable.
Obama’s Muslim agenda working
If this happens someone will in time have a Short Talk With GOD!!!!
Obama care at your service.
