Brampton pastor saved from euthanasia, but he may still die
We first reported on this story here.
Received via email Sept. 3 from the Euthanasia Prevention Coalition…
A week ago, the Euthanasia Prevention Coalition was successful in helping the friends of Joshua (Kulendran Mayandy) gain permission to have Joshua orally fed. Joshua was then able to feed orally without complications, but any other form of feeding (IV or otherwise) continued to be denied. We helped by organizing legal and medical support and a media response to his case throughout North America.
