Not being so dogmatic, this is one of the most sensible things I've read - paerhaps we should have the Pope intervene? That would make this even more interesting.

I wonder how the public would have reacted if he insisted that he and his wife wanted children, so he insisted having her bear children in her vegatative state? What exactly are spousal rights anyway?

I don't know if they're gonna get the Dems to bite too hard on this one. At least not hard enough to affect the '06 midterm elections. Fool me twice and all that rot.

Sorry to burst your bubble on that one...

€uro, it's amazing someone hasn't done that yet.....

I don't have a problem with him moving on, I have a problem with him not moving on. He is still married to Terry, and he has two kids and a fiancee. Is it about control? Money? I don't get it.

Thanks for the link, Claire. I was pretty sure that others, not just the husband, had stated that her wishes were not to be kept alive but I was unable to find a cite to back it up.

Also, concerning the suffering of Terry by the removal of these tubes; what I have read suggests that due to the condition of her brain, she is not feeling pain or discomfort from the process. I have no way of knowing this for sure, I suppose, but it is what many doctors have said.
