When people see someone in a physical condition that they find distasteful, they think that it is a life no longer worth living.
I have to admit, that I don't believe that I would have wanted to live as Terri Schiavo did for 15 years. This entire issue has me baffled.
Congratulations. you're human.
However, we never can know unless we find ourselves in that situation. Dr.s who deal with these patients say nearly all of them opt for life, even so -
naturally, when we're young and healthy, we can't conceive of wanting to be that condition.
