The law has ruled that the feeding tube can be removed. You may or may not argue that this is moral. That is your choice. The crux of the matter is she had no living will. If she had, there would be no question as to what her wishes were. You can not prove what they were. And because of that, the court decided. The end.
I'm asking you for your opinion. Do you think it's right to starve a disabled woman to death who had no living will?
How many healthy 20 somethings have a living will??? There are just too many questions regarding this case...it deserves to be looked at. A mother wants to care for her child and a husband refuses to let her do it! Why?

My Reply: Not quite! Those of us who have read the actual court testimony disagree with the Judge! Judges are not GOD, they make mistakes. And Judges are human beings with all the foibels of humans. THIS Judge has not permitted the Schindles Petitions for the Husband to be removed and for terri to divorce her husband in, oh as I recall, about 1 year now.
You think jsut becasue he is a Judge, we should all go away and accept that the "Court has Ruled." I won't go away and accept any ruling from this awfull Judge. What we have here is a Pro Euthanasia Judge. I have read the actual filings and petitions and affidavits, jsut about ALL of them. The Schindlers are getting how shall I say, hmmm... well let's just say it, screwed by this Judge from Hell.
I guess I would feel differently if this were not a life and death case. We all hve a Right to Life, given to us by our CREATOR not some Judge and not by the Constituition.
