I got a little free time and I'd like to learn more so I'll be back with experienced opinions.
Im sorry but that doesnt prove anything, thats a simple case of there is no right answer.

If you read " She was in a vegetative state, battling leukemia. "

So she had cancer, she was a vegetable (probably brain dead). She had already had a number of operations including bone marrow transplants.

Not to sound cruel, but yes it comes down to MONEY. Why should an insurance company give coverage for a $50,000 operation if the patient shows no signs of getting better? I mean it sucks, its a hard fact of life though.

Ironically the people bringing this story up are the same people arguing about how expensive health care is LOL.
