Sweetie after I have rotten for a while laying unaware and consuming the resources of my family or society I HOPE they pull the plug on such a charade. But then I am neither afraid of the other world nor selfish.

You choose your life or NOT,I'll let GOD choose for me. I'm neither selfish nor afraid. I believe killing is a sin.

If you think it's selfless to commit suicide, then move over you're breathing my air. Do you suppose someone with your attitude might someday say that to you? Is that what you want to see happen? Do you think there are too many useless people occupying hospital beds and resource? Why not just hand them a gun and tell them point and shoot? Eventually you will find out the truth when you meet your maker.

We should all be so lucky as to have a loving and caring family to fight for our lives. CHARADE? I would be HONORED to have the Schindlers fighting for me. I find it hard to read the stupid remarks on these threads. I am ashamed of our country and it's SELFISH BRATS.

And NO I'M not going to shut up and take it if it's WRONG!!!!! "All it takes for evil to succeed is for good men to do nothing".... I believe that. If you don't than you have bought the lie, hook, line and sinker. SWEETIE!!!!

There is no killing here merely the cessation of an artificial prolonging of life. A life which, if left to God, would have ended long ago. Men kept Terri hanging on in limbo not God. There was no God in that debacle.

If terminally ill people stop eating are they committing suicide? Are they sinning? I'll let God decide those questions not a mob of the misguided.

Since you cannot distinguish between actively terminating lives and allowing nature to take its course with hopeless causes it is clear that you cannot understand what has happened here. P.T. Barnum's dictum remains on point.

Society will have to make hard choices when social resources are involved and that is what is paying to prolong these patients' suffering. Like it or not there is NO alternative.
