People seem to forget that NOBODY involved in Terri's murder suggested that she was brain dead. The reality is that Terri had been breathing on her own for well over a decade before she died.
The ONLY device hooked up to Terri was a feeding tube.
People can argue the criteria of death all they want, but if the brain and all major organs are working the person IS NOT DEAD.

oh I’m with you!
Unfortunately we had firsthand experience what brain death is all about.
If our loved one had exhibited any of the signs Terri did, we would have fought tooth and nail just like the Schindlers.
