That depends what is being refereed to as "life support". Turning off a respirator that is " breathing for a person" is fine. Taking away a feeding tube is not ok.

My wife and I had this discussion. For us, removing life support up to and including a feeding tube is okay.

Even the jackals present their breasts To nurse their young; But the daughter of my people is cruel, Like ostriches in the wilderness. The tongue of the infant clings to the roof of its mouth for thirst; The young children ask for bread, But no one breaks it for them (La 4:3-4).
