You said ... " You conveniently forget that a pacemaker is more 'life support' than a feeding tube is."
That is a fraudulent statement. Untrue. Not correct.Wrong definition. Your false assumption.
In Theresa's situation, the stomach tube IS considered life support.
But then that was decided by the rogue courts and the dishonest and murderous husband, and any other excuses you want to state.
No, it is NOT fraudulent.
Explain to me, slick, how a fedding tube is 'life support' but a pacemaker is NOT.

17 or supplants a spontaneous vital function.
Pacemaker supplants a vital function and extends life beyond what would NATURALLY be without it.
It is life support under the above quoted Florida bill.
A feeding tube is another way of eating.
A pacemaker is another way of keeping your heart beating.
A colostomy bag is another way of....well, you know.
A wheelchair is another way of getting around.
Why is one wrong but the others right? And explain to me why Greer has ruled twice that Terri be given nothing by mouth? And to enforce that, her family is thouroughly searched everytime they enter her room? And there are police in the room to make sure? She isn't being "allowed" to die. She is being FORCED to die.
