This situation is so lose-lose that things will never be the same. This case will be looked at down the road from vicious realist lawyers and a nightmare will unfold on this nation. Terri is not "braindead." She is not on "life support." She needs to be started treated as a human being, or else things are going to evolve and people are going to criticize what really who decides to live or be taken of life from handicaped conditions.
I won't duplicate what has been said (it is all relevant to how I feel!), but some people are speaking out with misconceptions. People are saying that the Shindlers don't want her to OD on morphine, and would rather her die on lack of thirst. That is just so incorrect. The father was expressing how exhausted he was, and if he had to give up on Terri from lack of legal options, he stated he would rather her be killed by lethal injection. And she barely has had any morphine!
The only thing I wish is to stop her from suffering, whether it be life or death. I wish someone would step in, but if the future holds her death I would rather her die at this very second. She is fighting to live, moaning and crying in discomfort, trying in her limited way to reach out to express that she WANTS TO LIVE.

I believe so.
I may need a translation of this posters typing, and a lingual analysis done.
Could be useful in future typos of mine.

Yikes!
Had rain for two days, that coupled with the rain melting the snow that had been left and temps today into the low 60's had us watching the creek out front rise up to road level.
*chuckle*
Quite fun.
Hopefully, no more snow here.
But, we'll likely get more snow.
Wish I could send some of this warmth up your way!

That's okay, the heat will get here soon enough. Probably all at once and the entire winter's worth of snow will melt in a week and flood large areas. Just a wild guess, only seen 30 of these Alaska spring breakups.

True.
Been told a few times about the flooding and warm weather induced mud.
Never having been out that way, it doesn't 'click' in my head.

Hey, how come everyone is picking on fullascension? S/he is not doing anything wrong or against the rules. His/her opinion is the same as the opinions of 95% of the people here. Why all the ZOT threats?
