I'm sure it does happen every day to people who are dying where family members agree on letting the person die.

This case is different. Terri was NOT dying.

She had family members who wanted to care for her and they should have been allowed to care for their daughter.

It's just not right, but then I realize some people will never see this the way I do.

My opinion in regard to this case will not change, no matter how people try to justify the way Terri died. And my opinion has nothing to do with whatever the autopsy said or did not say because my opinion has not been based on her condition or how she got in her condition. It's based on the rights of a family member to care for a loved one, no matter what condition that loved one is in, and I hope laws are changed to allow family members to care for severely disabled loved ones if they want to care for them. To not allow loved ones to do this is just not right - period.

The laws of the state of Florida gave her guardian the right to make the decision.
