"...they would put a bullet through her head, or give her a lethal injection...."

I'm not in the medical field so I need some help with this. If Terri has been given a morphine drip the last couple of days, and IF the feeding tube is reinserted, in Terri's condition, would the morphine have a negative affect. Would she have some sort of withdrawl problems with it, combined with the reintroduction of nutrition? Could that lead to her death, having a shock to her system like that hit her after two weeks without food AND water?

I heard a doctor the other day say she was getting a very small amount of it. Of course he didn't go into why a "vegetable" needed morphine.
