I'm sure you'd say (a) at that age. Anyone at that age would say it, and carelessly.

And that's precisely the problem with the evidence they're trying to use to starve Terri. How could anyone know what they would want in that situation until they're in it, and it's too late to tell anyone?

Look, there are no issues here of terminal illness or "right to die." Terri is perfectly healthy. This is a simple "quality of life" case.

If you believe that one person has the right to tell another that their quality of life makes it not worth living, then take the side of Michael Schiavo.

If you believe that every life is worthwhile in its own right, no matter how retarded or crippled a person is, then take her family's side.
