>>>all those treament never improved Terry's condition.

What treatments did she have in the past?

The most important thing Terri never got was assistive communication. Technologies exist that allow someone who can do no more than move their eyes or give a deliberate puff of air to communicate. NONE OF THIS was ever made available to Terri. It could be that she could have told us how she got to be in this situation, and what SHE wanted done about it now that she is.

Or it could be that she can't. At any rate, it should have been TRIED.

Her husband doesn't want either of those things to happen because it might interfere with his plan to be her heir and marry his new honey. To me this is the clincher. I have not seen ANYONE refute this one point. Assistive communication has never been tried, and if anything Terri's family has said is true, THOSE TECHNOLOGIES WOULD HAVE WORKED.
