re: Texas keeps dead body as fetus incubator against family's wishes.

This where I disagree with you. If there's nothing on the DNR stating that she has no problem with being taken off life support and letting a clearly viable fetus die because she is brain dead. That's basically aborting a viable fetus and IMO only the mother has the right to abort the fetus. Nobody else should hold that right for her even when she's brain dead, not the state or next of kin.

If there's nothing on the DNR stating otherwise, the fetus needs to be protected since it would be clearly viable.

Yep. We disagree.

If I say "DNR"...it is on ME to have any caveat or codicil that modifies it.

Otherwise, if I die...those "systems" I support with my life / energy go with me.
