I'd be all for it if it was the parents making the call. Her husband has a clear conflict of interests. Like Nsaniti pointed out, he's with another woman with whom he has 2 fuck trophies. He's moved on and now the only thing standing in the way of his marriage to the new woman is the less-than-trivial matter of his current marriage to a woman who can't sign divorce papers. This guy is a piece of shit through and through. If he really wanted to do the right thing, he'd turn over legal guardianship to her parents, divorce her, and never look back. Hell...we all already know he's an asshole. What's one more log on that fire? Another woman he dated after his wife had her heart attack...wait...did I say dated? I meant stalked. Anyhow...this woman gave a court deposition to the effect that she asked him if what he was doing was really what Terri wanted. His response (to paraphrase) was "How should I know? We were 25. It never came up.". I can honestly say that if I were in her position I would probably want them to pull the plug. Problem is in her case there's no "plug" to pull. She's breathing on her own and not relying on anything except a little food and water via a tube. Killing someone via starvation has to be about the most unethical thing I can think of. I mean...if I locked a mentally retarded kid in my closet and starved him to death I'd go to jail. However, slapping "M.D." behind my name would give me carte blanche to "let someone die" (nice way to say "murder by indifference"). If it were me, I wouldn't want to be kept alive like that for 15 years or at least have my best interests looked out for by my family. But hey...it's not me so I don't have any say in the matter.
