And where did you get your 43% of PVS is misdiagnosed; do you have a link?

Doctor on Fox News last night--forgot his name. Just remembered the number.

For the record, I'd like to say I'm proud of my aunt who taught me compassion as a child by taking care of her "vegetables", Lisa and Jenny, who couldn't walk, talk, sit up, feed themselves, etc. She carried them around until they were too big to carry, and then some wonderful nuns with a home for disabled children took care of them for her. She saw them every weekend, and one died at age 36, and the other one made it to the age of 41. I visited their gravesites 3 years ago after traveling to a family reunion.

Did they have brain activity? Did they have any ability to move their bodies?

I'm sorry to hear about those children and bless you for taking care of them.

But I've seen the most ridiculous comparisons to PVS made known to man. Some people have said that maybe we'll start killing off the Christopher Reeves or the people on dialysis.

There is simply no comparison to those examples and PVS. None.
