I don't really know.
We all do die. There is a time that comes. I do not think is right to allocate scarce resources to those whose time has come. I don't want it done for me.

Scarce resources? Food and water are scarce resources? By what criteria do YOU decide when a person's "time has come"?
BTW, have you realized yet that Terri is not on a respirator?

"We all do die. There is a time that comes. I do not think is right to allocate scarce resources to those whose time has come."The person in question does not have a terminal illness. If her food and water were denied, she'd die of starvation/dehydration, but not of a terminal condition.
"allocate scarce resources" - I hope that doesn't mean letting someone live or making them die is to be a matter of cost effectiveness and the bottom line. I don't want those kind of decisions made by bean counters.
