And this is exactly why I believe a living will is a joke. Nobody, but nobody knows how they will feel in any specific situation until they are in it. Can you imagine being locked inside your body, perfectly capable of thought but unable to communicate to everyone - hey! I'm here! I can hear you, see you, love you - don't let me die!
Perfect, you described it so well.
This happens every day. Those that say, it's "for the family" (embarking on the long hard road to recovery), have it backwards.
Prayers for Terri today. We can't allow this..
Thank you, dear Sam.
