I don't understand the distinction you are making.
A court order had to be given in order to have her feeding tube removed in every case correct?
Who gives a court order but a judge?
Technically speaking the one removing the feeding tube is a doctor or the medical staff at hospice not her gaurdian or a judge.
Sorry I'm not understanding you.
The first two times, Greer allowed Michael to order the tube removed. The last time, Greer decreed that the tube must be removed even if by some chance Michael decided he no longer wanted to do so.
It may seem like a distinction without a difference, especially from Terri's point of view, but think about it. It was not one individual doing it, at his discretion with a court's permission, as bad as that is; it was the State of Florida doing it, and I would like to know what the source of authority is that allows a state judge to order the starvation of a U.S. citizen.
Cordially,
