If the patient wishes to be kept alive artificially, even if PVS, then those wishes should be respected, too.

Unless the patient is named Terri Schiavo?

Where exactly do you draw the line? Why do you believe that Terri Schiavo didn't have the right not to be starved and dehydrated to death? You claim that some people have that right, but not Terri. Why?

What is your evidence that Terri wished to be kept alive artificially?

Pay close attention, so I don't have to repeat myself again: I believe that Terri DID NOT wish to be kept alive in a PVS state. The court ruled, and was upheld, that there was clear and convincing evidence of this. I have seen no substantiated evidence to the contrary. So I have no reason to disbelieve the judgment of the court regarding her wishes.
