Good points.

Couldn't the same be said of a lot of lifesaving medications? Or nearly any technological advancement that can save lives?

But again, the point is that she isn't terminally ill, and there is no proof (beyond the word of her husband) that she would wish to have the tube pulled. I just have a hard time accepting that the word of one man should be enough for her life to be ended by any means.
