He's still alive but...

In a coma...  it's unlikely he'll wake up.  Now it's time for the tough decisions.

    No... Sad

    Yeah thats hard. I don't know If I could make the decision on pulling the plug. My Grandmother was on a respirator for the last part of her life. She was pretty much brain dead, but my dad and his sibling refused to pull the plug. She ended up dying on the respirator, but because she has been on it for so long, at the funeral, her face looked like a balloon! It made me more sad. But I understand what they were faced with. They felt like if they pulled the plug, that they were killing her.
