A "wish I never said that moment" for sure. Whether or not, the man said it was some two years before he awoke inside his own head and heard all this. A scary thing this is.
Well, as the years went by, maybe Martin himself wished he would die.
a lesson would be not to assume someone can’t hear or understand you and treat them with dignity and respect.
Wouldn't that be considered torture?
One of the first things I learned in nursing school is to always watch what you say around patients.
Hearing, it’s said, is the last sense to go.
A posting of a different article a few days ago if anyone
is interested in reading over 100 comments thereon:

The article is not clear on if the fellow’s mother is still alive, and if they have much of a relationship.
We ALL hate Barney.
If Jeb had his way he would just starve him to death.

I do’lt like JEB, but he DID try....I remember it well....he did all he could do. BLAME the CORRUPT JUDGE and the HUSBAND WHO KILLED HER!! Geesh.
I don’t really understand how Jeb becomes the lightning rod and the guilty party in the case. Is the expectation that the Governor should throw out the court? Can he? Should he? If so, fine, I just don’t quite understand how “Jeb killed Terri.”
Lots of people would criticize a parent who had said that, but I’ve got to admit, if they cared for their son in that situation day in and day out for 12 years, I’m kind of amazed they only said something like that once. I can’t help but admire parents with that kind of devotion and sense of responsibility.
Yep, Terri Shiavo was in a vegetative state as well.
She was starved to death and was aware every second of the torture inflicted upon her.
As governor of the state Jeb could have had Terri taken into custody by the Florida State Police.
The mother is still alive and Martin says that part of his locked-in time was spent thinking about and understanding his mother’s heartbreak at seeing and weariness in caring—for years— for this apparent husk that was once her son.
Not true at all....Constitutional crisis. The JUDGE and mostly the HUSBAND are GUILTY of MURDER.
My youngest sister had a heart attack, she was pronounced dead, then they got a pulse, but they called it a persistent vegetative state.
I told my brother in law to keep trying. He did.
And she eventually woke up.
But she was different... she would be having a normal conversation with you, then all the sudden like start talking about buying paper towels or something else that has NO connection to the reality she was part of.
After a bit she would be normal again.
It’s very odd.
