I agree with you that the question is if Terri wanted to live as she was. The problem is a lot of people are letting their personal thoughts on how they would view living in Terri's state get in their way.

...because unfortunately Terri was unable to speak for herself.

Here is someone who spoke for her..even argued with her about death and the courts. P>
Terri's best friend, Diane Meyer, recalled they had just seen a television movie about Karen Ann Quinland. Terri, wondering how the doctors and lawyers could possibly know what Quinland was really feeling or what she would want, said, "Where there's life, there's hope."
