		Wendland presents an opportunity for the California Supreme Court to lend its substantial weight either to a progressive position which recognizes the effects of prejudice and discrimination in health care de cision-making, or to ignore these realities and allow a narrow-minded view of human value and economic expediency to dictate who may live or die.

		Wendland & Dvorak on the Tablet PC A lot of Tablet PC enthusiasts are up in arms today over an article in the Detroit Free Press by columnist Mike Wendland.
		The most interesting response to Wendland's article I've run across comes from a post John Dvorak made on his blog.
		I can see the bigger screen being perfect for a s/w developer but I think the reason people are upset at Wendland is that he shouldn't have evaluated the biggest Tablet he could find if he wanted small and light.

		Although he was not in a permanently unconscious state (sometimes called the "persistent vegetative state"), Robert was paralyzed on his right side and could not talk or meaningfully communicate with assistive devices.
		Anyone who has to satisfy the Wendland standards (typically a family member) is almost certain to have a tough time proving the case.
		The Wendland opinion reads as if Rose were a stranger to Robert and assumes he needs legal protection from her making a bad decision to let him die.

	CNN Transcript - Burden of Proof: A Life in Limbo: Should Robert Wendland be Allowed to Die? - January 15, 2001
		ROSE WENDLAND, ROBERT WENDLAND'S WIFE: Well, three months prior to Rob's accident, my father was in a vegetative state, coma, and we had decided to remove his feeding tube.
		COSSACK: We are back and we are talking about the tragic case of Robert Wendland, who is a semi-coma, and there is dispute between his mother and wife over whether or not his feeding tube should be removed, and Robert Wendland be allowed to die.
		Wendland really isn't in a complete coma, that the notion of pulling his feeding tube really represents a step by society of going in a direction where this kind of action, that is the death of a patient, is a form of treatment for economic and insurance reasons?

	ROBERT WENDLAND AND THE "SAFER" COURSE
		But these institutions do have a moral responsibility to lend their weight to efforts to prevent killing, and to allow for evidence that an earlier de facto intent to choose suicide has been abandoned.
		In Robert Wendland's case his efforts to secure his own comfort, to be free of annoyance, to enjoy social contacts can reasonably be seen as implying a desire to live.
		In this context the sifting of evidence for negative evaluations of Robert's cognitive state by Rose Wendland and her presentations of an extremely bleak picture of his human activity before the media are not efforts to pursue the safest course.

		Horvitz and Levy LLP - Conservatorship of Wendland
		Wendland arose from a dispute between the wife and mother of Robert Wendland, who had been severely brain-damaged in an automobile accident and was being kept alive in a minimally-conscious state by tube-administered nutrition and hydration.
		Robert had previously told his wife, children and brother that he would never want to live "like a vegetable" or be kept alive "by machines and tubes." He did not, however, execute an advance directive for health care.

	The Case of Robert Wendland
		Their decision upheld the trial court's ruling that "clear and convincing evidence" was the necessary standard for the authority to remove artificial nutrition and hydration, not the "preponderance of evidence" standard suggested by the Third District Court of Appeal.
		Great prudence is needed in the Wendland case to discern the true good and to choose the right means for achieving it.
		Two extremes must be avoided: on the one hand, an insistence on useless or burdensome technology even when a patient may legitimately wish to forgo it and, on the other hand, the withdrawal of technology with the intention of causing death.
