Terri Schiavo's Death Sentence
If it was Terri's will to die, why did it take hubby 7 years to decide that?
Why did 2 people say that in the beginning years hubby never knew what Terri would have wanted? Hubby's brother was on TV the other night. That would have been a perfect opportunity for him to say hubby became a nurse to help Terri. Nope. He said hubby spent $300,000 on his eduation so he could have a career. I know the cost of education is astronomical but pleeezzzzzzse.
A couple of years before my dad died, he had a tube inserted for feeding. We shouldn't have done that. We should have let him starve to death. He was too old.
My sister has a student whose about 7 or 8 years old. He carries a backpack everywhere he goes. Why, you ask? Because he has a feeding tube. Let's pull the plug on this kid. He's got too many years ahead of him.
We have a very large facility nearby that holds hundreds of mentally retarded people, some of which have a feeding tube. Let's unplug all of them. They're not smart enough.
For all those poor souls using Collascapy bags, repent, The end is near.
-------------------------
The point I'm trying to make is having feeding tube is not enough reason to let someone die. The examples I gave, especially the young boy, show it's possible to live a relatively normal life with a feeding tube. If this boy's parents said they did not want him on life support (feeding tube), he'd be dead right now. The feeding tube is not the problem. The rest of her condition is the problem. Let's say she didn't have a feeding tube but she was the same in physical condition otherwise, we wouldn't hold her food back and let her starve to death.
She can breathe on her own and her heart beats on its own. I can understand pulling the plug if she could not do either of those things. To me, that's brain dead. The bottom line is that the feeding tube is the only thing she needs to live, just as the people in my examples. Whether she can get better or what type of vegetatative state she's in is meanlingless. The other point I was making with repent, the end is near, is that this is another means of life support, just as a pacemaker is, why is that any different than a feeding tube.
But no, I have it wrong. It's the quality of life and remember Terri is brain dead. Hmm... Last I knew, the brain controls everything. I wonder how she's able to breathe or move. That's quite a trick when you're brain dead. I wonder too how her liquid brain is able to stay in her head and not leak down to her toes?.
