I have not heard one word that Terri has spoken for herself. All I hear is the opinions of others.

I have not made this case a priority, so I'm not sure how many years she has been immobile. All I am saying is, to me, that is not living.

That's the problem. Most people with your attitude have that particular position because they're not in hers. Terri made no legal statement documenting her position prior to her 'accident'. So, which side do you err on, life or murder?

I understand your thinking. If you get the time and inclination, you may want to wander over to www.terrisfight.org and have a look at the videos there.

There is no dispute that Terri lives with significant disabilities and I don't think anyone here would try to change your mind about that. But, have a look and ask yourself if this is a vegetative person.

Since it's required prior to removing enteral nourishment, it's pretty important that she fit the description. Ask yourself if she does.

I know it seems like all we hear is opinions of others. Perhaps the reason is that this is such an important issue and the courts have so totally overstepped the law in this particular case. It's pretty understandable why people become vocal.

In any event, have a peek when you can and take care.
