mmm so far only one "nurse" has said she was responsive... and this person also claimed this was in 1985... 5 years before Terri's accident. So her credibility is lacking.

All that should matter is that the court-appointed experts concluded she is PVS. That means the opinions of biased doctors from both sides should not be listened to. The court-appointed doctors are the only ones who are truly objective in this situation.

Seriously Ben... 7 years of court rulings have consistently said she is PVS. We're not just talking about Michael Schiavo's opinion. This case has been gone over with a fine-tooth comb... every imaginable detail has been brought to light. And the experts have consistently ruled in favor of Michael Schiavo.

Why is this even an issue?

It is a pretty open and shut case. It's just a shame that the ignorant ideology of a few fanatics are attempting to distort the facts in order to get the result they seek.

Thats not very nice. It becomes sad when one cant accept the opinion of another.

Well, the government couldn't stop people from feeding their plant.

Why should they be able to stop Terri's parents from feeding her?

I'm sorry, its just that if Ben had his way I'd be burning alive in a big firey brimstone place, if you sense any animosity it might be because of the amount of pain he wants me to have....

point is the parents should be given a right on their daughter. Hell they brought her into the world why shouldnt they have a say when she dies. For the smart asses dont bring up murder as an option. These people have a choice the parents of someone that has been murdered didnt

Parents weren't her choice, her husband was, seems logical as to who gets the final say, how ever hard that may sound.

You know I have this sinking feeling that Ben put me on his ignore list.... sigh....

lets test that scenario:


Ben now is the time, if you talk to me now I will be saved I will join in the gospel of Jesus, repent all my sins, but only if you read this........

That website is obviously a pro-life website... Look at the damned name, "lifesite" Plus those are just particular coincidences; when the vast majority of docots say that it is not reproducable, then you kind of think that it isn't reproducable, and yer source becomes debunked.


...yeah, I'm bad at debating. /shrug

Seems to me it's the parents who are the truly braindead ones here...

Let it drop for christ's sake...

So much for a dignified end...

What is particularly barbaric is that the 'pro-lifers' are forcing her to be starved to death, when a lethal injection would be a far more human way to end her un-natural life...

I saw the husband interviewed - he seemed like a good man with his wife's best interests at heart. He's stood by her through all of this.
