"Simple solution. Give Michael a divorce --- he can forget about his wife and move on. Let her family be her next guardians." I've wondered why he didn't just divorce her for a while. Maybe he really does love her and she really did say she wouldn't want to live like this. What a concept, huh?

Maybe he really does love her

Enough to shack up with a new ladyfriend, who has a baby by him and another on the way. In the bad, darkened, unenlightened old days this would be referred to as adultery and bastards. Today? He's doin' what he's gotta do.

Yep. I agree. Maybe loves her SO much that he had a girlfriend at the time he was swearing under oath to take her home and care for her for the rest of HIS life. He loves her so much that he has lived with another woman for the past 7 years and has children with her. He loves her So much that he bars the people who wish to harm her ( her parents ) from seeing her. Yep, he sure does love Terri. /sarcasm

Or maybe he doesn't. Apparently --- from the nurses statements, there was no evidence of any love for Terri. Her "wishes" are only what he alone claims, if she really had a burning desire never to be put on a respirator ---- apparently the only desire she might have expressed, it seems she would have got it in writing and maybe even discussed it with other people --- not just him.

Also she had made statements to her friend about wanting out of the marriage, about seeking a divorce ---- certainly that would show her desire to end the marriage --- and that desire should be granted ---- it should carry as much weight as the respirator statement she might have made in determining guardianship.

Oh yeah, I'm sure Michael really loves her and is so concerned. But, I betcha he's much more concerned about his fiance, their child and the baby on the way. What a concept, huh?
