I see you also think that you are the ONLY voice that counts. What about loving parents that want to take care of her. What happened to you, happened to YOU. It is childish to think that your solution will work in this case.
I recommend that you think it out carefully and don't EVEn attempt to thrust your belief structure on others. Your BIAS is showing.

No, I'm merely repeating what ALL the medical and court-appointed experts have said. Why do you think Michael Schiavo won all eleven court cases whereas her parents lost all eleven?
I am a parent four times over. I know how painful it will be to lose any of them and how reluctant I will be to face reality if any of them were placed in a similar situation. The hardest thing for any parent is to see their child die before themselves. I pray I'm never placed in a similar situation.
Terri's parents are trapped in limbo for 15 years. Instead of spending the twilight of their lives with each other and enjoying the remainder of their days; they are trying to take care of their invalid daughter in the hopes of a miracle.
If she hasn't recovered in 15 years, what makes people think the odds of recovery are higher next year?
How long will they last with the terrible responsibility of home caring their invalid daughter? Not going anywhere. Trapped in the house. No vacations or travels. No enjoyment of retirement.
I've no doubt they will either give up or die themselves within a few short years from the strain. If Terri was cognizant; I've no doubt she wouldn't want to be such a terrible burden on her parents during their elder years.
