And this is unlike Terri b/c Terri had NOTHING in writing...something the Loony Left forgets when they blather on about how people "have a right to die"The report was referring to the "vegetative state" being like Terri....not the written wishes.....but the report is still wrong because Terri was never on life support to help her breathe. The judge in her case deemed her feeding tube was "life support" which is wrong as well.
Heck... the kids I work with ALL have feeding tubes. It is NOT what is considered life support by any of the medical personnel I have encountered. But then......I don't live in FloriDUH.

Yeah I understood how they were using Terri...the point I was trying to make is: here this guy is and he has something in writing (which is what Terri should have done if what her so called husband says was true), he did what we are suppose to do if we want our wishes to be followed and it still doesn't matter! Culture of death. sigh.
I too am in a medical field and you are correct: food is not life support.
