I know most people here are outraged about this!
I know a young man ,that was in a similar situation and the doctors told his parents ,that he most likely would never be able to function normally.
His parents struggled with this and first thought that maybe they should remove the live support and feeding tube ,to let him die,but they couldn't go through with it.
He is one of my coworkers and he proofed the doctors wrong.
Terri could have been just like him ,if MS would have allowed Therapy in all those years.
My coworker was in this state for 6 month and it took him another 6 month of therapy to relearn how to speak and walk.
I am aware that Terri might not ever walk again,but she may have been able to learn how to speak again.
Should the feeding tubes have been removed from Christopher Reeves(spelling?)before he died a natural death?

I'm glad you shared that story with the happy ending.
Thank you.

(Cranford says "Terri has no constitutional rights." Then why has she got a "right" to be starved?)
