Actually, by Florida law his living will governed the decisions, not his wife.
Don't bother them with facts they have no bearing.
His living will gave his guardian the responsibility to decide what was a "reasonable chance" of recovery- and to decide what extent of recovery he would want to continue to live. She claimed to have seen improvements from alternative medicine (as if ancient Chinese cures are inferior in some way to ours, which were still using leeches 100 years ago)...and she was only asking for THIRTY MORE DAYS before making her decision!
C'mon.
Judge Greer took all options and all decisions away from her at the request of his NONGUARDIANS who stood to benefit financially form his DEATH. Judge Greer could take decisions away from anyone by substituting his own opinion...as we have seen.
But now, please spare us the argument that Judge Greer was simply preserving Terri's legal guardian's standing and legal prerogatives to make decisions for her. Or that the courts "stay out" of family decisions when they trample on the spousal interpretation of the last wishes of the helplessly disabled..
