...probably for the best, but there are folks out there who would argue with you about it. They would not have any interest in being responsible for the 'baby' either. I think the judge made the right decision.

Good, that's what the woman wanted & her family.

Judge Orders Hospital to Remove Life Support From Pregnant Woman

A Texas judge ruled on Friday that a Fort Worth hospital must remove the life support of a pregnant, brain-dead woman, siding with the husband and family in a case that has drawn national attention.

The judge, R.H. Wallace Jr. of State District Court in Tarrant County, ordered John Peter Smith Hospital to pronounce the woman, Marlise Muñoz, dead, and remove her from life support by 5 p.m. on Monday, which gives the hospital a chance to appeal.

Ms. Muñoz has been on life support since Nov. 26, when she collapsed on her kitchen floor from what appeared to be a blood clot in her lung. She was 14 weeks pregnant.
