"Yes, and Florida law (and the law of many other states as well) provides that you have a right to be allowed to die if the Court determines, through the application of strict standards and a very high burden of proof, that that is your desire."

Then why do you not provide a link to that law?

Because I don't know if the Florida statutes are on line somewhere. But the law applicable to Terri's case was chapter 765, Florida Statutes (1997), under the constitutional guidelines enunciated in In re Guardianship of Browning, 568 So.2d 4 (Fla.1990). There is also a newer Florida statute applicable to later cases, but not to Terri's.
