<<As the kidneys shut down, chemicals that cause euphoria are released; >> My father had an aortic aneurysm that couldn't be operated on so they lowered his blood pressure to allow the rupture to heal. His kidneys shut down and what he went through was spelled agony, not euphoria.

<<Do you want to live for a prolonged period of time with a feeding tube and no brain activity? Be sure to get those papers signed! >> I drew mine up in 1975. I also keep a gun handy. <<I heard on the news this morning that Tom DeLay was involved in making the decision to pull a feeding tube from his own father, who had suffered brain damage and had no hope of recovery.>> You heard bull crap. His father had a brain injury from an accident and was on a breathing machine in a coma, no brain activity. He went into kidney failure and they didn't add the dialysis, nothing was removed.
