"Vincent has died, killed for reasons of State and by a doctor who has forsaken his Hippocratic oath ... No account has been taken of the dignity of this handicapped man, who was condemned because he was handicapped. For the first dignity of all is to respect a person's life. Part of our common humanity has left us today, because this heinous wrongdoing that is shaking the foundation of our laws and civilization affects us all." -Jean Paillot and Jérôme Triomphe

(France) — [Lifesitenews.com] Vincent Lambert is no more. After nine days without food and fluids, showing a remarkable will to live despite the cruel death of thirst that doctors had prepared for him, France's Terri Schiavo departed from this earthly life at 8:24 a.m. on Thursday, July 11. He died of heart failure induced by the malfunction of his kidneys in Reims University Hospital in the room where he had been kept under lock and key for the last six years.

France deliberately ignored the request from the United Nations Committee for the Rights of Disabled Persons that asked for provisional measures for the end-of-life procedure to be lifted while it examined his case.

The last weeks of Vincent Lambert's life were particularly distressful for his father Pierre, mother Viviane, and siblings David and Anne, who fought for his life over the last six years. They were given only limited time with their son and brother, alternating visits with Vincent's wife and guardian Rachel and those family members who were favorable to his death, and only being allowed to approach him one at a time.

NOTE: In another Lifesitenews report, Cardinal Robert Sarah was quoted as saying, Lambert "died as a martyr, a victim of the frightful madness of the men of our time. I pray for his family and especially for his parents, so brave, so worthy. Do not be afraid. God watches"... Subscribe for free to Breaking Christian News here
