House Bill Levin sixteen by represented Dotson to establish Simon's line to clarify the requirements for a parent or legal guardian consent for end of life medical per procedures for minors. Absent Dotson you're recognized explain the bill thank you Mr Speaker members. House eleven sixteen is my great honor to bring to you today Every once in awhile you get one of those bills that is just like why isn't that law already this is one of those bills this is named after Simon. It was a little boy little boy in Missouri that when Simon was born had a heart defect in his parents and brothers fell in love with them despite his life threatening diagnosis in the medical community's opinion that it was incompatible with life. However just days before three month old Simon was scheduled to see a cardiac surgeon his parents begged for help at the hospital treating Simon when his condition started to deteriorate. They were shocked when the staff did not intervene. They did not know that the hospital had made their baby a do not resuscitate and that Simon was only. Was given only so called comfort feeds due to a secret fertility policy. They had to helplessly watches Simon died in their arms. As far as I know this is never happened in Arkansas But. That was in twenty ten I became aware of this you're in a half or so ago when Missouri passed Simon's law it has passed in several states since then worked very hard with all the very stakeholders to make sure that all the teaser crossed and I's are dotted. Is this is a very sensitive issue but as far as I know there's no known opposition to this this is just one of those. Good pieces of legislation have on the books to give hospitals doctors and all medical community directions so that End of life treatment can't be withheld. Or withdrawn without the consent of of the parent or legal guardian on them when a minors end of life decisions are made being made. With that I appreciate a good vote.
