Speaking of contradictions, the contradiction du jour is the one about Terry saying she wants to live. Consider this...

Just yesterday we had a new doctor saying that she wasn't PVS but rather minimally conscious. One of the distinctions between then is that someone minimally conscious is able to answer binary questions by blinking or raising a finger or grunting or some such. So why would this attorney ask her to verbalize "I want to live." when it would be so much simpler to ask her to blink twice if she wants to live? That would be so much easier for her to do. That they didn't ask her to do it suggests that the minimally conscious business is a stretch that they don't want confirmed.
