Imagine you are lying in a bed or sitting in a chair. You can't tell anyone when you hurt or when you want to shift your hips or turn over. You are unable to indicate you need to defecate or void. Maybe you have a catheter to drain your bladder, or maybe you are in a diaper and urinate and defecate on yourself like a baby. Your either have bed sores or are at high risk of getting them. Your arms and possibly your legs are contracted because the muscles have long since dwindled to nothing. Those limbs will always be that way because they have just not been used for too, too long. Everyone seems to be concerned over the pain Terri may suffer from starvation, but no one seems to be concerned about those daily aches and pains that we all get when we are not allowed to move around. Terri is a prisoner in her own body and it is way past time to parole her. The chances of rehab working for anyone after 13 years is slim to none. Regardless of Terri's husbands motives, this woman should no longer be tortured. This is not being alive, this is existing. I don't understand how her family can feel this is better than being allowed a natural, dignifed life and to spend eternity in heaven with Christ in a perfect body.

Do you suppose you could post some of his comments to this thread for those of us who are cubicle challenged. Much appreciated. ;-D
