You've got a REAL problem with people deciding their own fate. Terri didn't want to live in a PVS state. This was confirmed with multiple witnesses in a court of law. Y'all didn't get your way...you couldn't force her body to continue on. I think it's time for you to move on.

Hmmm ~ multiple witnesses. We've been over that one so many times I can't believe anyone could possibly bring it up. I said there was NO RECORD.

Pretty simple.

But, again, this is NOT about you. Whatever you do, just make sure that none of it bothers me, or any of the rest of us. I assure you I am fully prepared to simply step over your body if it should come to that.

Don't make a mess on your way out, please!

Thank you.  What I like is the people who write "I miss Terri so much".  No, you did not know the woman.  You only know what you saw on TV, nothing more.  You are obsessed with the "image" of Terri.  You built her up to be this great martyr and you don't know if SHE wanted your martyrdom.

____No, it was confirmed by Judge Freer's decision to believe Michael Schiavo..I think Jeb feels some shame that he wasn't able to stop the euthanizing of a disabled woman..

Once again, dehydration was NOT an option when Terri was injured. There can be NO WAY to prove that was what her choice would have been.

You make it sound like she made some definitive on the record statement about being in a PVS state. I recall the only alleged indications about her wanting to be killed were vague references to being on total life support from her husband and people in his sphere of influence.

On the other hand there were many people who knew her claiming she made statements about wanting to be kept alive , enough that I am inclined to believe them more then her husband.

Who an objective observer would believe seems to be irrelevant to the court, which again and again and again applied a "let the husband decide, and will all others shut up please" standard to the issue.
