I'm afraid that if this was my daughter, there would be 2 people die the day they tried to unplug my daughter from any kind of assistance.

The man who tried to unplug the tubes would be the first one. I would probably be the second when the swat team came to murder me and my daughter.

It's getting past time for another open rebellion in this country. Courts deciding who lives and who dies? Let the parents take her home for god's sake. At least they love her enough to want to give her another chance.

You know what is really eating at me about this situation is the fact that Terri's parents have offered to hand over all of the money to Terri's husband if he would only grant them legal guardians of Terri.....well, he won't and that's what gets me. Why is he so afraid of allowing his wife to get better? Did he do this to Terri himself and is trying to cover his sorry a$$? Is he afraid that Terri will be able to tell people what happened should she get better?

If I were Terri's husbands fiance....I'd get myself away from him as fast as possible.

I am go9ing to have to agree with you 100%. This case would have never been a case at all if Terri were my daughter. My instinct is to spare my children from any harm and I am sure that that is an instinct that I will never lose.

Today that instinct is stronger than it has ever been. This morning I was driving and my vehicle caught on fire under the dashboard. My 7 yo son was lying in the back seat sleeping. He has been very ill and because his medication knocks him out he did not hear me screaming his name. As I pulled over on the side of the road my first instinct was to get Mason. His door was locked. I had to open the drivers door to unlock my back door. I never "saw" the flames or was never afraid of the smoke. I got him out as the car burned. I KNOW that I would battle the devil himself hand to hand if Terri were my daughter. I would not care who I "took out" to save her. Damn the consequences. In her state, she is as helpless as my child was this morning and it totally sickens me that this is being allowed.

On other threads I have heard some whining about how the law is the law and how we can't overreact and that we must change the law through the appropriate means. I am of the opinion that when the law no longer protects the innocent and seeks to harm them then it is time to damn the law and do what is necessary.

Maybe I am emotional right now but regardless it is how I feel. I am sorry for interjecting personal experience but it is what is shaping my opinion at the present time.
