#life support
This happened yesterday but, Atlas and Eli’s story has been featured on the #FreeTheLGBT profile on Wattpad! I am so proud of this story and I look forward to making it even better once I start editing it ❤
Oh my I am sorry for disappearing!! New phone and couldn’t connect to Tumblr for some reason… But I am back!! And I have some exciting news! Life Support, my new adult, LGBTQ+ love story has been finished for a while but it is getting some upgrades! Like this AMAZING cover I designed! On top of that, I will be starting the second write in February which will result in a bunch new content and updates (including a new title)
It has also had almost 4k reads on Wattpad! (Not a whole lot but still amazing in my eyes)… Here’s hoping to a lot more!

I haven’t posted here in a while! I hope you are all doing well ❤️❤️
I have been posting on Wattpad again, and I now have 2 stories live now:
The Day You Walked Into My Life which is a story about love, self-growth, betrayal.
Life Support is an LGBTQ+ love story about two young men who are drawn together over grief and life’s struggles (this story contains content that might be triggering/uncomfortable for some readers).
If you would like to check either out, their links are provided below! ❤️
Can You Ever Pull The Plug? Life Support And Jewish Law
Since Joan Rivers’ death, several people have sent us questions about life support issues in Judaism, similar to the way that Robin Williams’ death piqued people’s curiosity about suicide in Jewish law, particularly as an effect of mental illness. I recognize that this is a sensitive topic and I address it with two caveats. The first is that issues such as this are far above my pay grade. Accordingly, while I am striving to impart information, I am definitely not attempting to rule in any matter of law. If anyone ever has a question of practical application in this area, he should contact a recognized Torah authority. (This is beyond the usual “ask your local Orthodox rabbi.”) The second caveat is that there are no doubt readers who have had occasion to address such end-of-life issues. Some of these readers may have acted counter to what I will soon say is Jewish law. No one is judging you. Having a terminally-ill loved one is a terribly difficult situation and no two cases are exactly alike. As the mishna in Pirkei Avos (2:5) says, we are not to judge another person until we have been in his or her place.
That having been said, the Jewish philosophy on life support is predicated on the belief that all life is sacred and is to be protected at virtually any cost
