I hope you will reconsider. I posted the following on another Terri thread.

I have been through horrible long drawn out deaths several times with relatives and friends. I saw a friend in Viet Nam with the back top of his head blown off, leaving only the very base stem of the brain. The bullet went through just above and behind his ears. He reacted to stimuli in the hospital just like Terri does now. His doctors recommended letting him die with dignity since there was no hope, but his parent’s religion got in the way. Their decision was to take him home and pray for miracles. The doctors said the teenager could live for fifty to sixty years on a feeding tube, but he would never re-grow a functioning brain.

Everyone just ignored the post and flamed me with their good christian views. I give up on them, but not on Free Republic. Just ignore them and stay off of their hyper threads until the inevitable happens and then they will all disappear. There is no logic or common sense in their posts, only pure emotion based on projecting themselves into her body. She has been dead for fifteen years. I believe they are the ones thwarting God's will. There is no evidence to the contrary.
