Extraordinary means is one thing, but denying people food and water is quite another.

Especially when the person may be able to swallow, but is forbidden all efforts at therapy to do so. Even if such attempts would entail risks that would preclude their use in other circumstances, even a 5% chance of success would be better than a 100% certainty of painful death.

Unless, of course, that 5% chance of success would translate into a 5% chance of you being sent to prison for life.

Absolutley. This entire thing is so evil and bizarre, I can't believe people can't see it. Or worse see Terri's STARVATION as somthing GOOD. The wanton destruction of Terri and her life is hell on earth. Everyone who had a hand in it will pay and pay dearly, in this world and the next. I am hopeful with Judge Greer's open defiance and disrespect for the ENTIRE U.S.Congress, he has made new enemies who will want to REPAY the favor!
