    I am so sorry, Dino ~Hugs~

    I'm just speechless at the hypocrisy of the medical/insurance providers.

    I wish I had words of comfort for Mrs SP and yourself. I feel so helpless sitting here unable to do anything for SP.

    I can't believe they can withhold medical treatment without the family consent, that could possibly save him. This just makes me sick.

    You may not be related, hon, but in my heart I believe the SP's think of you as family.

    What about the oath all doctors take to save and preserve life?
    This truly is a sad situation.

    This reallly makes me mad at the doctors and obama. It is human nature to never give up on survival but why a patient??? Totally disgusted with the health system and I hope SP's wife is fighting this. No one should down without a fight.

    Dino, I can't even fathom what Mrs. SP is going through. The thought that our own medical system can turn its back on someone because of limits set on insurance makes me ill. I don't know if it will help, but have Mrs. Sp call a local news station and expose this. Hopefully it will be in time to get him more help.
