The Appomattox man who's the center of a legal battle over life-support was removed from a ventilator today.
Jason Childress was injured in a July car crash.
Today, the University of Virginia Medical Center removed his ventilator after his court-appointed guardian determined he would
not want to continue living on life support.
Childress' mother, sister and fiancee supported removing the ventilator. His father and stepmother did NOT.
Since Childress had no spouse or adult children, left no written instructions and his parents could not agree, a judge appointed a guardian to make the decision.
