And I wanted to add one more thing. A parent would be beside themselves with the terrible thought that their dying child has it in their head that they are doomed for damnation in the child's going against his/her stated and heartfelt spiritual and afterlife beliefs.

A parent of a dying child (especially one that has gotten NO sleep, fumes run, and is in the constant world eye,) is so fraught with sadness and worry and wish beyond wish that they could transfer/take away the pain of their dying flesh and blood, that the parent gets consumed with helplessness and worry and pain that the child has such awful thoughts (in this case, eternal damnation,) on his/her mind while going through such agony and the absolute torture of the death process. And this particular death process is WORLDS worse, in that Terri was not dying on her own--her death was extraneously and to some degree, unwittingly brought ON her.

And even just one more thing. At this point, I think I'd like to go on record and state that the sarcasm, back and forth childishness, pettiness and "how old are yous?," back-biting, gotchas, over-the-topisms, and over-the-line-ism gross generalizations and intended mischaracterizations of Freeper to Freeper, is RUNAWAY. And ugly. On BOTH sides. And I certainly don't mean everyone.

If anyone doesn't see it, you're not being honest with yourself.

Flame me, I'm fire retardant.
