I told you that Mae Magourik, whom was being dehydrated and starved in a hospice under the instructions of her granddaughter, was sent to a Birmingham hospital receiving treatment.

Well, yesterday the family was barred from seeing Magourik at the hospital by the instructions of the granddaughter, Beth Gaddy.  According to the judge, Gaddy was made the temporary guardian of Magourik, and had made the order while the family was visiting her, which meant hospital officials made the family leave.  The family plans to petition the judge to allow visitation rights.

Wizbang notes the media is finally starting to pay attention to this story outside of LaGrange.  The AJC has an article, along with the Birmingham News.   Ken Mullinax, Magourik's nephew, was scheduled for Hannity and Colmes tonight, although I didn't see it because I don't have FNC.

Hopefully the judge will make the right decision, and that's to allow her to live and take guardian rights away from Gaddy.
