If I was Judge DeSalvo
If I was Judge DeSalvo, I would have a lot of opinions about Anna's case. If I was Judge DeSalvo, I would say the following things about the case. I understand where Sara is coming from. She has her whole family to think about, not just Anna. Sara has to be a mother at home and a lawyer in court. I think she tries to separate the two, but she ends up being a mother in both places. I understand why she would be mad as well, but she needs to know it is not her decision to make. In order for Kate to live, Anna has to endure some pain. I know if my siblings needed anything, no questions asked I would give it to them. I didn't grow up having to give and give and give and give every time they needed a transplant. I feel if I did grow up that way, then my answer may be a little different. I understand where Campbell is coming from as well. At first, I thought he was just a attorney looking for some good press. Then, after the case went on, I realized he was doing this because he cared for Anna, because he could relate to her. I don't think Campbell is a bad person at all and I think he is fair and he does what he can to help. This is what I would say about the case. With all of this, I would rule in favor of Anna and Campbell. It is Anna's decision to make, not anyone's but hers. She is capable of making her own decisions. With all of the things she's been through, I think she is more mature than most of the people her age. Even though Kate convinced her in the beginning, I believe it is best for Anna and for her family if Anna is medically emancipated.
