Lauren Marie Richardson--Dad, Mom fight over starving brain-damaged daughter

I meant to send this out a couple of days ago, but could not find the video nor the transcript until today. Lauren's father was on Hannity and Colmes. There is also now an injunction against him regarding the video that they had made of her.

Alan Colmes starts this with a wrong premise right off the bat! She is NOT brain dead. If that were true, she would NEED a respirator to ventilate her. She is BRAIN DAMAGED. She is DISABLED. She is NOT DYING. Food and Water are NOT 'life support' in the way a ventilator or dialysis is. Food and water, even via a feeding tube is a necessity.

A Delaware father is fighting his ex-wife, the medical establishment and the court system for the life of his 23-year-old daughter, left brain-damaged by a 2006 drug overdose, in a case with striking parallels to the 2005 death of Terri Schiavo in Florida.

"She's committed no crime and doesn't deserve to have this death imposed on her," Randy Richardson told the Wilmington, Del., News Journal of his daughter, Lauren Marie Richardson.

She was injured by a drug overdose in 2006 and has never recovered fully from the brain damage she suffered, he said. Court records reveal she was pregnant at the time and was kept on feeding tubes and a breathing machine in Christiana Hospital until her baby girl was born in February 2007.
