Also, a commenter left this over at Right Wing News:

[...] However, the neighboring diocese is quite different and filled with pro-lifers who would be very distressed to see that an Episcopal hospital is so eager to murder its patients. Perhaps we need to involve them as well, it would be good to get more Texan advocates if possible:

Diocese of Fort Worth:

General email (but calling is better!)

PLEASE help. This matters–it could be any one of us. Wesley J. Smith:

Cases like Andrea Clarke’s could not be more important. If the principle is ever established that doctors, hospitals, and faceless ethics committees can dictate who can live and who must die, the already weakening faith of the American people in their health-care system will be seriously undermined and the door will be thrown wide-open to medical decision-making based on discriminatory hierarchies of human worth.
