Look, while I personally think this method of euthanasia is GRUESOME and if to be done, OUGHT to be done in a more humane manner, if not for the victim (presuming she IS vegatative and has no idea whats going on) then for the people surrounding her, not only her parents, her husband, but the care givers. My wife used to work in a Cancer ward and almost EVERY NIGHT she came home in TEARS. No one wanted to work in that ward so the Hospital, for a time FORCED nurses to take a TOUR OF DUTY or get fired. I can tell you, suffering like Terri is going through EVEN if she doesnt know it is VERY hard on the care givers. Now, in Terri's case, the evidence that THIS IS WHAT SHE WANTED is very slim in my view. All I am asking for was a review of the facts IN THE OPEN and if this is what she wanted, hell just give her an overdose of Morphine, there is no need for THIS. jdn

Why don't you and yours knock it off with the "it's a religious right wing bullsh!t"? I'm not at all religious and no where close to being right wing yet I find preventing a loving mother from caring for her daughter to be totally outrageous. What if I married your sick daughter and suddenly decided to pull the plug? Would you oppose me? Don't you find it the least bit outrageous that a man who abandoned his wife many years ago for another woman with whom he fathered two children should have guardianship over a loving mother and father who've stood by their sick daughter all these years?
