Terry is in a persistant vegatative state. Tell me, if you were in the same condition, would you want to be kept alive? I understand the issue of "playing God" here....and nobody really has the moral right to do so, and the way they are letting her die may be barbaric......but if anybody here said: "Hey, if I were in a vegetative state, I would want to be kept alive!!" I would tell you to your face you are full of sh it.

Sitting in a bed with a feeding tube, never waking up, not hearing, not feeling, not loving...and looking forward to what...another 20-30 years of this? Her soul sort of in limbo. I can't speak for Terri, as none of us can, but Im pretty sure given the choice of being a vegatable, or, you know, moving on, Im pretty damn posotive she would choos the latter
