the people who talked to Terri's parents said that Terri did have a will to live.
Terri had an incredible will to live. She lasted thirteen days without a drop of water, not even wetted lips. She shrieked when they pulled her tubes. She wanted to live. I was outside the gate when it happened and heard the resulting commotion, was one of the first to talk to the guy running out from the room to tell us what just happened.
Her heart was strong, her constitution was strong, belying any thought she had given up.
