"I demand to know why everyone thinks this is any of their business. Don’t any of these “Save Terri” groups ever stop to think that maybe the facts as presented in court and reviewed multiple times are correct and Terri would not want to live like this?

Okay, lets assume for arguments sake that you are correct...... why then would you think it humain to "put her out of her misery" by slow dehydration and starvation????????????????

Have you ever know of a dog who was put out of his misery by this method? Of course not! It's cruel and heartless, and totally unthinkable!

I live in Oregon. We have the assisted suicide law that is currently before the US Supreme Court. It probably would not help in Terri's case, but I would be in favor of it. Right or wrong, the state voted for it and the federal government should stay out of it. You are either for states rights or against states rights.

I have owned several pets that have had to be put down. I agree that we treat animals better than people in these horrible situations.
