Life and death in Houston
KHOU-11 checks in on Spiro Nikolouzos, and reports that the man is being moved back to a nursing home with a pro-life orientation. We had previously noted the San Antonio hospital's decision to pull the plug on the Houston man here.
Also, the Chronicle's Todd Ackerman reports on Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee (D), who has asked a Houston-area hospital not to pull the plug on a terminally ill infant. Laurence Simon offers some thoughts on the Jackson Lee's sudden interest in end-of-life issues.
