New Case: Jordan Allen v. Texas Childrens

Fourteen-year-old Jordan Allen has an inoperable brain tumor.  After a cardiopulmonary arrest, his providers at Texas Children's Hospital determined that there was no chance of recovery or cure.  They followed the formal section 166.046 procedure and planned to withdraw life support on Sunday.  Jordan's family was, however, to find a LTC transfer facility for Jordan, after their insurance company reversed its earlier coverage denial decision.
