I didn't say you did.
I think there is enough legitimate discussion around Haleigh, because there have been several news reports that I've read where this is mentioned as a right-to-die case.
Every report I have read has stated she can hold up toys you ask her for and that they mistakenly tried to terminate her thinking she could not recover after her parents beat her to death (well close enough to death).
That was, of course, before they realized she was improving.
Thank God someone had some sense up there to not kill her especially since she hasn't been this way for even a year.
I can't for the life of me figure out how Haleigh's story can be viewed as a right-to-die case. Maybe you can help me out.
I couldn't say and I'm sure anything I have to say won't help you in anyway.
I know you didn't, but because Hildy had directed her comment towards me, I thought you might have been implying that I was posting the story as a Terri add-on. Sorry about that. I was just trying to make sure you and others reading didn't misunderstand my intentions for the thread.

While that's good, I guess I must have been following her case a little closer as there have been several reports out there claiming this as a right-to-die case, and it has even been mentioned that Haleigh's story is like Terri's. (In some aspects, yes, and in others, no. At least that's my opinion.)

So we agree, then, that the doctors and the state in this case were mistaken in their diagnosis. Good to know that doctors aren't infallible.

I can agree with that. It would have been killing her.
especially since she hasn't been this way for even a year
I sure hope that's not your way of saying that it would be okay to kill her if she had been this way for over a year. Is there a time limit of how long it's okay to wait before killing someone? Just asking.
Me: I can't for the life of me figure out how Haleigh's story can be viewed as a right-to-die case. Maybe you can help me out.
You: I couldn't say and I'm sure anything I have to say won't help you in anyway.
I'm glad you don't think of this as a right-to-die case. Thanks for sharing your thoughts with me.
