Are we respecting Terry Schiavo's wishes or Michael Schiavo's wishes? That's issue number one. Terry's wishes are not written anywhere. We have only Michael's assertion of Terry's wishes. That seem to have changed to suit his specific wants and needs.

The thing is, where do you draw the line? Who can speak for those who cannot? The best you can do is err on the side of keeping people alive unless there is written verified evidence of their wishes to the contrary.

yeah seems like the libs are all about death.

Death to unborn children.

Death to suposed vegitables. (though the husband will not allow other docs to examine)

hmm seems like the only people libs dont want killed are child molesters and other criminals.

Nash, the guy could give gaurdian ship to her family and walk away.

No one knows if what her wishes are just the word of her husband who has every reason to want her dead.

what reason does he have to want her dead?

GtoRA2 · « **Reply #20 on:** March 18, 2005, 08:37:17 PM »

he has a new women and kids.

The money.

And many speculate he put her in that state. If she can speak again in the future he may face some criminal charges.

yup it's pretty sad when the party that supposed to care about the "little guy/gal" want's somone to die because they can't speak for themselves. I agree all this guy needs to do is sign divorce papers and move on with his life. I don't think this is all about money either.

The sad part is this case is taken to the courts. The courts decide and set precidence. That precidence is used in other cases through out the country in effect setting law.

True. It's too hard to hold em down when you try to shove the tube in.

Well, I at least would like her to live for her parents... and we DON'T know what her wishes were.

To be honest, I don't care enough about this exact situation to get into it so much. The broader questions interest me, but in pursuing them I'd have to be kind of troll-like... and some of ya's may care deeply about this particular situation and I don't want to offend anyone if that's the case... so...

To each his own. God bless and all that.

Tough choice with no easy answers

All I can say is what Im saying publically right now.

If Im ever in that situation.
Give me a year. If im not out of it by then and being back to be able to function normally again
Pull the plug, cut the tube and hit me in the head with a hammer if you need to.
Then tell my wife to get me the cheapest funeral possible. bury me in a garbage bag and have me tossed in the city dump if they will let her. (once Im dead I'll never know the difference. Nor will I care)

Then take all the money she can and make a better life for herself.

I'd rather be dead then be alive like that.
that aint live'n

Damn... okay I gotta ask.... Pure curiousity...

"If Im ever in that situation. Give me a year. [Then pull the plug]"
