It seems quite reasonable to me that the wishes of both her husband, and her parents, should be secondary to the current wishes of Terri herself, providing they can be satisfactorily determined given her present state.

This may seem to be a very large if, and yet in the video which was linked to here she was shown as responding to her father. The response was in the form of a kind of gutteral laugh, as he was reminding her of something in her childhood, or during a period of health earlier in her life. As I recall, he was holding something in his hand. Her response seemed to me to be in direct response to the stimuli he was providing.

If Terri truly wants to die given her present state, it doesn't seem unreasonable to believe that she could blink her eyes or respond in some other manner to questions about how she wants to deal with her life.
