This story is amazing: A Taiwanese couple has cared for their unconscious daughter for 53 years. In today’s mainstream bioethical view, this is a “burden” that should not have to be countenanced. I say it is as profound an act of unconditional love as I have ever heard of. This should be the true face of humanity, not dehydrating the helpless to death because we think they have lives not worth living.
