Alright,this terry schivo thing.

A quick,vague summary.She looks like a vegatible,but she might not be totally gone...theres a chance she is 'trapped' in herself and/or can feel things.The husband has succeeded in getting her feeding tube removed and she is dying as I type this.The parents have appealed to the courts and want her to live and re-insert her feeding tube.The husband thinks she would want to die and the parents obviously feel she would want to live or at least die a better way than starve to death.


Live or die?

I say let her parents take care of her if they want(which they do as far as I know)or at least perform euthianasia a bit more humanly than starving her to death.She will most likley die,but what are your thoughts(and yes,I think the husband deserves to be paralyzed in a tragic accident and have his feeding tube removed just to see how it feels/or lack therof)?

Keep in mind this isn't pulling a plug...they are starving her to death.
