I'm finding myself conflicted over the story of Terri Shiavo.

It tears at my heart that they're allowing her to starve to death, but the doctors have all confirmed that there is no recovery for her. Perhaps it is a moral issue that we must all face. Perhaps it's her husband that wants her to just die so he can move on with his life, insisting that it would be her will. Perhaps it's just her family that can not bring themselves to the resignation of letting her go.


It has definitely encouraged me to have a living will drafted so that in the event this circumstance occurs to me, everyone will know for certain that it was my wish not to live.

Who's choice is it to let her live or die? Letting her starve just seems inhumane.

I would want to be in that situation.
But ... the parents say she wouldn't, and that's the whole problem.

Although, if they're just going to let her starve to death, they may as well order a lethal injection and not make this more drawm-out than it has been already.

I really think they should give her the lethal injection or something, it's humane, and it'll let her die.

What's the point in living like that?

You can't understand anythink, you're braindead really, you've 0% chacne of recovery, just let her die?

I've already told my parents that if I'm in the same situation, I want to be killed.
