Unfortunately, there's no way to prove one way or the other if what he claims is true, but if your loved one had specifically said to you, "Don't ever keep me alive as a vegetable, would you just them over to someone to keep them alive? Assuming he's telling the truth, it's not about the expens of keeping her alive, it's about her specifically saying she would rather die than be in the state she's in. I'm have no opinion on it, because there's literally no way to know if he's telling the truth. He'd fight just as hard either way.
