Okay, today, I have found to possible legal basis for putting Terri's tube back in, until they are investigated.

1. It was against the law to pull feeding tubes, when Terri collapsed. So, she could not have possibly ever said that she "wished" to have her feeding tube removed.

2. Judge Greer is a PROBATE judge, and he has no jurisdiction to judge this case. His ruling should be vacated and they should start over.

It's illegal to get a big shot of morphine instead of dying by simple removal of feeding/hydration tubes... but I still want that if I get in her situation.

The decision is to what Mrs. Schiavo would have wanted, not what she could have had 15 years ago. And that's why living wills are so necessary to prevent the COURTS having to be the ones to decide what they think would be in your best interests.
