Mae Magouirk out of hospice; at UAB Medical Center
Via Richard at BlogsForTerri:
Mae Magouirk is out of hospice and has been transferred to the University of Alabama - Birmingham Medical Center.
Just received telephone call (3:00 PM ET) from Ken Mullinax, nephew of Mae.
Terri saves another life!
Followed by this email:

-End email
IT IS NOT OVER YET - THE OPPOSITION IS STILL TRYING TO GET HER BACK TO THE HOSPICE - SO KEEP FIGHTING BLOGGERS AND READERS!
Update: The comment about it not being over yet came from Ken over the telephone, as he was rushing to see Mae. He said he’d elaborate more as soon as he had the chance. That is all we have at the moment.
More about Mae Magouirk: See Sounding the Trumpet here, here, and here, Thrown Back here and here, and Wizbang here and here (follow the links from there).
[UPDATE: Also read Darleen, who sees the big picture in this exactly as I do.]
There are some skeptics about the whole story, but for the life of me I don’t get why some are so anxious to debunk it. Maybe because the idea of this granddaughter wanting to kill off Granny because she’s old and sick is so outrageous? Too difficult to fathom? Whatever it is, I’m watching to see what becomes of it all.
More important though, is that we remember how cheap life has become, where it’s considered acceptable to so many to just extinguish life once it gets to the point where they “wouldn’t want to live like that.” I ask again, at what point do you decide you “wouldn’t want to live like that,” and do we kill off all of those who fall outside that theoretical line? More on putting down the sick and disabled like sick stray animals here and here.
A personal note to those who claim to know that they would not “want to live like that”: how DARE you. Bigots. (I’ll avoid Godwin’s law here and leave it at that.)

The Declaration of Independence states,
“We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.”
What part of “unalienable” do they not understand?
NAG THE U.S. SENATE TO DEATH about restraining these judges that have gone mad.
Tell your U.S. Senators that the courts are killing us with forced, involuntary euthanasia. We fought World War II to stop the Final Solution; you don’t want us to fight it over again!
