omg please just protest without making your self look like a dumbass. Hold a sign or something. That just makes you look even dumber and does not help your cause.
I don't know honestly. Would she die slowly without the tube? Honestly if you believe this is your only life and then after this there is nothing then for her its just over.. this is all she has left... who knows that is not a decision I want to ever have to make.

totally agree
all of that medical stuff could be going to use on someone who could use it, not someone who will almost never recover

to be honest with you, i live like 15 minutes from clearwater, florida where terry's hospice is at and im dead sick of hearing about this dam case. my area has been hearing about it for months now and most people agree its time to let her go. she has no ability to do anything, the machines are keeping her alive and after 15 years i think its time. ever since this got all political its just been plain rediculous. her husband wants to let her go but her parents insists that she'll pull through. its just time to let her go.

Oops, I voted disagree and meant agree, imadumbass.
There is more to the story that what I see some posters write. She's been in this state for 15 years but it isn't till after 7 years went by that her "husband" remembered she didn't want to live like that. Same "husband" who is living with another woman and has two kids by her. Same husband that stands to inherit a substantial trust fund when Terri dies. Yeah he's all concerned about her best interest.
What's the rush to kill her? The only person claiming she said she never wanted to be kept alive by artificial means is her less than honorable husband.

THANK YOU!!!
If my daughter ended up in a situation like that I WOULD NOT want her "husband" trying to have her put to death based on something that he has no proof to back up!!! He wants the $$$$, and if he just divorces her so that her parents can take care of her he won't be intitled to the $$$$!
The heart ache her parents feel right now must be tremendous and my prayers are with Terri and HER family!!!!

I personally think the husband should have divorced her years ago. I mean he has a gf now anyway. He's just trying to get rid of her so he can do what he wants and have her life insurance money. I think if he was going to move on with his life without her, he should have divorced her and given her family rights to decisions like this. I think that if a doctor says she can be rehabilitated they might as well let her family have her and work with her. It's a hard situation because it's highly unlikelly she will get better.
1. It's not right to starve her to death because that is basically abuse. However, it's ironic that an eating disorder to keep herself thin got her in this mess to start with!
2. Can't euthanize her because that is downright KILLING her.
Seems like if the husband had been offered the million dollars years ago before this was in the public eye, he would have taken the money and run. Now he can't or he looks like the biggest @sshole in the world!
And I didn't realize he had two kids with the other woman. What @sshole would do that and not divorce the wife?! I hope he fries in HELL!
