> Have you read the testimony the court used in determing Terri's "wishes".

I've read quite a lot of the record, and summaries of the evidence and arguments. Not enough to even pretend to be qualified to make the decision one way or the other, though.

I do know that if I was in the condition that I understand Ms Schiavo was in, I would definitely not want to be maintained indefinitely on feeding tubes.

But that's my decision. I can't speak to hers. For better or worse, the courts did.

I do know that if I were incapacitated, I'd much rather be in the care of loving parents who would take me out in the sunshine and maybe put a kitten on my lap each day, than in the "care" of an adulterer who keeps me locked up in a room with no sunlight and those thoughts lean mainly toward "Is that b#$#$ dead yet?"
