no way I would like to be kept like a house plant just to say I'm alive by those that love you.


It won't happen to you by those that know and love you - because they would give you range of motion, therapy, interaction, good medical care, take you out in the sunshine. You end up like this w/no care and she is still very much capable of living a productive life but her 'guardian' says no - not a loved one - just a guardian.

That would not be productive life to me. I haven't heard anyone talk about what Terri was like before her tragedy, but I bet she was an energetic person like we all were at 26. No thanks, not for me.
