I’m not condoning this, including not notifying parents, but I will say that this is for people that are terminally ill and have orders for what to do if they are in a vegetative state. Yes, I recognize this is a slippery slope. Since I live in Canada and have a terminally ill Dad, I don’t like the direction this is heading. The medical community has too much power and has been gouging the public constantly lately with unnecessary vaccines, diabetes testing for expectant mothers, increased taxes to fund junkies etc.
