I don't disagree with you at all Sonja....But I see the parents argument in this too....And yes everybody should make out a living will, so that these decisions aren't left up to anybody else....Jamie


Jamie:
This all comes down to quality of life. Why is it that we can be humane to animals but not to people?


As a mother I understand the "anything it takes to keep my child here" mantra, but at some point you have to think about what the child's quality of life actually is. Some will say that I don't know what Terri feels or doesn't feel. That's true, but I know I would not want to be like that. Not being able to communicate and live a normal life, yes, I would want someone to let me go.

This is the very reason it is so important for all of us to make our wishes known when we are still in a [somewhat] rational state of mind.

Sonja
