I've seen bits and pieces of this and some of her web site. I am by far not as knowledgeable as some posting. It's a difficult decision at any stage of it.

If he doesn't want the responsibility he should get a divorce. The money was for her and not him, he should get a job. Really, if he is that adverse to the situation, he should just go the-f away and let her parents care for her. It's that easy.

ps. i try to always look for the good in people, sometimes it's very very difficult.

[Unfortunately, the media have successfully portrayed this issue as a fight over a woman they describe as 'comatose' or 'vegatative.' They cite certain 'doctors' who say this is so. They do not say that these doctors are hand-picked by the adoring hubbie. Other doctors are forbidden by the presiding judge. There are doctors who have seen the videos of her http://host85.ipowerweb.com/~friendso/vid.html and swear she is conscious and aware. http://www.wtlv.com/news/news-article.aspx?storyid=9362

Some people are evil. Looking for good in evil serves whom?

Now you understand the frustration of the folks here. :-)

He won't go away, because he only gets the $$ if he's her husband when she dies. And if she doesn't hurry up and die soon, there won't be any $$ left.

Repsonding to another Freeper's point... Removing a feeding tube is hardly 'pulling the plug.' And she has loving family who would walk through fire for her. The evil coincidence of lawyer and judge in Florida is heart breaking. Once this precedent is set in Florida, I hate to think what will happen to all those old folks who moved into the state. I'm sure more than a few of them are regarded as burdens by their next of kin. :-/

Prayers for a peaceful and easy death for Terri. The state has no mercy.

If she had put her wishes into writing or if he had used any of her rehablitation money on her..there wouldn't be a problem. Unfortunately, one person now has the court's approval to say that another person wants to die based on nothing but heresay. What next? We shoot someone and get our family to say they wanted it? Kinda scary where this could lead.

Yeah, me too. I used to say that I had faith in my fellow man....then I realized what a stupid statement that was. My faith is in Christ and His will be done. My human mind screams to fight against the husband that has used the pro-death courts to free himself of honoring his vows to one woman while raising a family with another. The Spirit within me tells me that even though I may never see the good that comes from this.....God has a plan and it will not be forsaken. I believe, I pray and I fight.
