"In this case, however, Michael Schiavo has not been allowed to make a decision to disconnect life-support. The Schindlers have not been allowed to make a decision to maintain life-support. Each party in this case, absent their disagreement, might have been a suitable surrogate decision-maker for Theresa. Because Michael Schiavo and the Schindlers could not agree on the proper decision and the inheritance issue created the appearance of conflict, Michael Schiavo, as the guardian of Theresa, invoked the trial court's jurisdiction to allow the trial court to serve as the surrogate decision-maker."
You can read English I presume? The court is the decision maker because MS has an appearance of conflict. The court ordered the removal of hydration and food. The court is the State.
Is that too hard for you to wrap your small mind around and come to terms with?
I disagree with your reading comprehension, in that you concluded the court ordered Terri's death. They did not.
The court ordered that Terri's right to refuse medical treatment be honored.
