I think death by starvation is probably both painful and not the way I'd want a loved one of mine to pass.

Terri is a vegetable to her husband. Reports from Doctors at Mayo suggest she's not in a persistent vegetative state. Since we have no real proof of her desire I think the best solution is to hand her over to her parents and let them pay the bill.

Thats what I think and no matter how you try to twist my words my view isn't going to change. You could have Jesus come down and explain why I'm wrong and I'd stand my ground

<<Okay, well, you said there was nothing you had read that was not really partisan indicating starvation death was not really painful. So now do you agree that there is?>>

I keep hearing about how dying from no food or water isn't unpleasant, since it takes 2-3 weeks to die that way I'd like just one poster of that opinion to go one week with no food or water and say from personal experience how pleasant it is.
