It is good to see that Terri's end of life wishes will finally be honored.

So, Terri told you she wanted to be dehydrated to death? Even hino admitted on national tv that he didn't know what she wanted, or did you miss that little tid bit, huh? He said that on Larry King Live so google it or find the link around here and educate yourself before you go putting words in Terri's mouth. Words Terri actually said was, "where there's life, there's hope."

In fairness to Michael, that may or may not be true. There is some question as to the accuracy of the transcript. Someone who saw the original broadcast confirmed it accurate, someone who saw the later broadcast said an "I've" in the transcript was so clearly "they've" that the transcript was clearly in error. Then the person who had taped the original broadcast said it was somewhat ambiguous. Strange. Wish I had tapes of both broadcasts to compare.

Really? In which trial was that testimony revealed?

Words Terri actually said, from testimony in the first trial (paraphrased):

Regarding her grandmother being in intensive care - If I'm ever a burden, I would not want to live like that.

Regarding a TV show depicting people on life support - I would not want to life (sic) like that.

Regarding her grandmother's funeral luncheon - If I ever go like that just let me go. Don't leave me there. I don't want to be kept alive on a machine.

Regarding a TV show with a man in a coma - I want it stated in my will that I would want the tubes and everything taken out if that ever happened to me.

Reference (page 9)

Those of you who are engaging in name-calling against your fellow Freepers may want to consider how that is helping the board, or the cause of Conservatism in general. Any lurking DUmmies are probably laughing up their sleeves at how the Freepers are now eating their own young. It is certainly not helping to bring us all closer together.
