Whether she can smile, love or swallow - none of these things count. Whether she can be rehabilitated, this doesn't count. What counts in the eyes of the court is that Judge Greer ruled that Terri didn't want to live in this way. Because Florida law allows hearsay in these particular cases, the judge accepted the affidavits of the three people he did. Then ruled that Terri would have preferred to die.

And I'm sure she specifically said that she would want all feedings by mouth stopped too /sarcasm

But that's their excuse...it's evilness written in the legal code...bad law gets used in bad ways.
