ABC News: Schiavo Case Highlights Eating Disorders

I pretty well avoid this story, since it’s being so thoroughly covered everywhere else, but this article caught my eye. Now, don’t assume I’m siding with the “bad guys” here – I’m not taking any side at all. I just think that in any story, listening to one side is not the way to learn the truth.

It is a cruel twist lost on no one close to the case: A woman who is said to have struggled with an eating disorder is now in the middle of a court battle over whether her feeding tube should be removed so that she can starve to death.
