12720275, i never hear about doctors telling a family to w/draw life support

b/c that's the family's decision or the patient's if they have secured a living will.

they can say there's nothing left for doctors to do and talk about what would happen if life support is w/drawn. but they don't advise the family to w/draw it AFAIK.

that reads like lazy reporting to me.
