"Right to privacy."
I just don't get it. If she's dead enough to starve, she's too dead to have privacy.
Schiavo and Felos keep talking about the Terri-that-was-and-is-no-more. They have the exclusive power to divine this Terri's wishes and intentions (sort of like a fictional character, isn't it? They ought to copyright her.)
Problem is, if this Terri died 13 years ago, in Michael's arms as he says, and she has no right to live, because she just doesn't, how does she come by a right to privacy? And a right that they may dispose, at that?
No right to live, no right to eat or drink, but to an abstraction like privacy, their Terri has a right?
No, I just don't get it.

Felos has the gall to refer to Terri as a "houseplant". Makes me sick. I would like to see what Terri has to say to him WHEN she is able.

Right to privacy
Stop that; you're making too much sense. Can't have that in today's world.
