My living will states that I would not want to be kept alive.
That's what I choose.
I'm sure my postings in this matter are colored by my personal feelings. I wouldn't want to live like that, period. And I hope my wife would honor my wishes. I would want her to be happy, not care for me for the rest of her life.
And what's wrong with a terminally ill person deciding they want to die peacefully instead of suffering for any number of years? That is their decision to make, not yours. Kevorkian wasn't going around killing indiscriminately, all those people asked for his help.
I'm just going by what God says. His law is higher, and more permanent, than Greer's. My life is not my own; it belongs to God. But we must fight for justice here on earth as much as we're able. It's monstrous that Terri is being forced to die of thirst on the whim of her husband. Why anyone would believe his word is beyond me.
Would it change your mind if M. Schiavo put Terri in this condition in the first place?
