Is it conjecture that Micheal wanted Terri to live before he thought she wanted to die?

God Bless you Terri in your hour of death.

May all who said your smile was fake be haunted by it for the rest of their lives.

Let us posit, perhaps, he wanted her to live; but when he realized her life was not going to improve beyond being in diapers, immovable, and incapable of responding beyond the barest of physical responses....he slowly made a much more realistic realization.

He may have fought against the realization of how bad off she truly was, insisting to himself that she would recover. Once he realized that was an impossible dream, he remembered her statements. I don't find it all that hard to believe.

I want to live, but if my life hung on the same threads as Terri's...I would want my wife to choose for me as Michael has for Terri.
