In my mind .. (and in fact, I'm in the process of explaining this to my kids .. which they're hating because it isn't cut and dried) ... the terminal horror can be someone who DOES have a living will with a "do not resuscitate" order .. and maybe in a coma .. and could recover. THAT whole scenario .. now illustrated by the case of the guy with stroke in Maryland, wherein the doctors are fighting to honor his living will and his wife is objecting, is a horrific thought.

I believe if Terri DID have a living will, she would have been dead years ago, and we'd never have known about this evil in her life.

I'm just praying, and I'm urging my kids, to understand that I DO NOT want to be starved to death and I want every chance to live.. even if the docs are pushing to pull the plug. We now have to be very precise, convey those wishes, and pray that those around us should such a time come, God forbid, truly can be our warriors and angels, but I have now decided that I most likely will not get a living will.

But Terri didn't have a living will either, and look what her gem of a husband is energetically wishing on her based on alleged recollections which didn't come to him or his family until AFTER the malpractice award.

DO get the living will (or advanced health care directive), and in it make no bones about the fact that you object in the strongest possible terms to the "starvation therapy." These wills are not just used to will your death. They can also be used to will your life (God permitting).
