Frances highest appeals court has ordered Vincent Lamberts food to be removed following a six-year-long legal battle for his life.

The 42-year-old nurse, now in a hospital in Reims, suffered an accident in 2008 which left him quadriplegic and with extensive brain damage. He is described by some as semi-conscious, and by others as being in a vegetative state. Vincent can sleep and wake up, respond to some voices, can swallow, and breathe on his own. He is not dependent on machines to live, but he is dependent on nutrition and hydration being delivered in a special manner, like many people.

The Court of Cassations final ruling means that Lambert, who is not otherwise ill or at the end of his life, would be removed from food and water and left to die slowly, which can take 14 days or more. The decision cannot be appealed in France, but his parents are fighting the order and have threatened to press charges for murder if his food is removed. However, Vincents wife and six of his eight siblings believe he should be forced to die.

In 2015, the European Court of Human Rights ruled against Vincents parents, but it wasnt until May that doctors began removing feeding tubes due to security concerns, according to the BBC. The Paris Court of Appeals immediately ordered doctors to cease until the Court of Cassation handed down their final ruling, which they did on June 28th.


What the actual fuck

Imagine dedicating your career to serving others and then being locked down and starved to death

If youre going to do that at less have the fucking cajones to euthanize the poor guy.

An injection is inhumane, well just let you starve to death while you suffer in your immovable body

Especially since he's got at least some degree of responsiveness to others, even if it's that subconscious level where you hear something or someone and that's in your dream for a few moments before you wake up.

This doesn't seem a very balanced view of the case. The guy has been effectively brain dead for over 10 years and it is his wife trying to have his life support turned off but his parents are blocking it for religious reasons.

Also liveaction is a site for conspiracy whackjobs

I don't know the source, but judging by this superfulous addition to the sentence that only exists to make a normalization argument, I'm gonna say its probably bad.

The guy is braindead. He's been braindead for nearly a decade.

He has no choice in anything.

I dunno, but it seems to be a thing in these cases. Terry Schiavo or whatever her name was in the US ended up being starved to death to.

Its most likely a matter of legality, like he wants his life to end but the only thing he can do is request his food stop.

If they're going to kill him, then fucking kill him. That this situation is happening at all is proof in itself that their laws and standards are wrong.
