"'the sad family consensus to let his father die.'" "When his kidneys
failed, the family decided against connecting him to
a dialysis machine."
The Schindlers desperately wanted their daughter/ sibling to not be
starved to death. There didn't exist a family consensus that Terri
needed to be starved to death.

"'Both were incapable of surviving without continuing medical
assistance.'"
Before she was starved to death, Terri Schindler Schiavo could be
fed by hand. Judge Greer ruled in one of his more outrageous and
sicker rulings that Terri's parents couldn't give her food and water
by hand.

False with respect to Terri.
