URGENT PETITION: Let Arline Lester live...Don't Pull the Plug!



Our pro-life reporting is being attacked. So is the truth. We can’t back down in the fight against abortion! View this email in your browser

A conscious and alert 91-year-old woman's life now hangs in the balance. Nassau County (NY) courts are now deciding on the fate of Arline Lester, who is recovering in the hospital after an amputation. Although Arline's recovery has been difficult (she is connected to a ventilator and a feeding tube in order to help her get stronger), she is conscious and alert. AND, when asked, repeatedly, by one of her sons if she wants to live, she mouthed the words: "I want to live." Click on this link to WATCH a video of Arline expressing her will to live. Nevertheless, seemingly because of a family dispute over Arline's future care, her life now hangs in the balance. The brutal truth is that disconnecting Arline's feeding tube will lead to her starvation and death. This is wrong! This joint petition, between LifeSite and the Personhood Alliance, sends the clear message to Nassau County (NY) courts and to her hospital: Let Arline Live! SIGN THE PETITION Though Arline has been bed-bound for some time, and had lost the use of speech, on New Year's Day, 2020, Arline celebrated her 91st birthday...AND, she started speaking again! Responding to her son's friend, Arline clearly indicates that she is not in pain by shaking her head 'No'. And further responding, Arline can clearly be seen and heard saying, "Thank you," in video taken in the hospital. Please CLICK HERE to learn more about Arline Lester's case and SIGN this URGENT petition! Arline has also recently been evaluated as mentally capable of making her own decisions - to update her living will to reflect her desire to live! So, we now ask you to send this clear message to the Nassau County courts and to Arline's hospital, to respect her desire to live, and to be cared for by one of her sons. PLEASE SIGN THIS URGENT PETITION, TODAY! The very same leftist coalition that took over the New York Senate last year and passed the radical “Reproductive” Rights Act is the same that is seeking to legalize euthanasia. Let them know that you stand for life, not death! And, please pray for Arline and all patients in a similar state. Thank you for SIGNING and SHARING this petition. Yours faithfully, Scott Schittl and the whole Team at LifeSite PS – Please SIGN this petition which calls on the Nassau County (NY) courts and hospital to respect Arline Lester's desire to live, and not be deprived of her necessary, life-sustaining medical treatment.
