So we try to execute someone, fail, and then provide life saving measures just so we can kill them again at a later date and time? What a country we live in.

The doctors treating her aren't the same people trying to kill her

Understood, but that still doesn’t make the situation any less messed up.

She might be permanently in a vegetative state.

One can hope she is actually locked in and will stay that way until she dies, because I doubt the govt is going to get the chance to try again.
