I'm really sorry to hear that...

As others have said,he really has no quality of life. He's basically a human being that has turned into a human doing...Which means,you and your family are doing everything for him. He is a vegetative dependant. Like an infant,but an infant that will not become independant in time. He is weakening and slowly dying. You know he's suffering. If he had the choice or the ability,he probably woul dhave pulled the plug himself.

I see you as a good son,only wanting the best for your father,and that is to stop the suffering your father has been going through. You know he's in agony...you know he can't do anything for himself. What good is he doing to anyone right now other than putting a huge burden on your family?

You all had your time with him,now he is in a state where it's time for him to cross over.

I really wish you and your family the best. I lost my grandfather to lieukemia.

On a seperate note,I have always been one in favour of euthanasia for cases like this. If I had the option in my will or something,if I became in a vegetable or dependant state such as your father with no hope of recovery,I would give my family and the doctors permission to pull the plug on me. What good am I if I just lay in bed and do no good to myself,my family or society anymore?

Yeah. Wow. I lost my Grandmother to Cancer, and its just flat tough to deal with regardless. I see you as a caring son. No one wants to watch their family, loved ones struggle or suffer. Its a touch cross to bear.
