If you do understand there is a difference between legal brain death and a persistent vegatative state, then you misunderstand.

This has nothing to do with whether Terri is actually in a persistent vegatative state. BTW, No one asserts she is brain dead.

To correct typo affecting meaning - I meant to write

"If you DO NOT understand", as opposed to "do understand"
