If the issue is merely food and water, these are basic human needs and their provision is within the realm of ordinary care. Their withdrawl would constitute murder.

No actually food and water are now considered medical care by the courts, thanks to the US Supreme Court back about ten years.

That's why we're all so damn mad, CJ! And the damn judge has ruled that Terri cannot even be allowed to try and take food and water by mouth! Terri has been abused for a decade via purposed, planned, calculated neglect to her rehabilitation, rehabilitation that had a $750,000 trust fund set up to pay for it! Greer secretly allowed Michael to raid Terri's trust fund in order to pay Greer's business associate, George Felos, in his work for Michael Schiavo to have Terri killed via dehydration.
