>>Odd, even those trying to murder her never suggest that she was brain dead. Brain death is a specific medical term, a person who is brain dead is unable to breath on their own, this WAS NOT the case with Terri.<<
There were no higher brain functions. Those videos make my point — she was not thinking any more than a grasshopper who watches movement.
>>Where are those instructions? Do you have a copy of them?<<
For her, they were entrusted to her husband. That is the law. For me, they are written down.
Do you know what Schaivo’s were? Or do you want Big Government to create them from whole cloth? Like you are.
>> Again, you are wrong.
From the article:
The Beckners reached the bedside of their comatose daughter the next afternoon, the beginning of a six-year rehabilitation struggle.
And Terri’s injury was FIFTEEN years before her murder.<<
Thanks for making my point. 15 years is even more than 2 months.
So, now you want to change the definition of brain death to be whatever you think it is?
For her, they were entrusted to her husband. That is the law. For me, they are written down.
Actually, the law was changed AFTER her injury. Terri NEVER could have requested to be starved to death.
Do you know what Schaivo’s were? Or do you want Big Government to create them from whole cloth? Like you are.
No, in the ABSENCE of written wishes I think we should presume that a person wants to live.
Thanks for making my point. 15 years is even more than 2 months.
My point which you obviously missed (perhaps a "higher brain function" issue) was that the woman in the article had the benefit of SIX years of rehabilitation, Terri Schiavo DID NOT.
