No one deserves to go this way, but you are in a much better place.
God help you Michael Schiavo… you will have to live with this the rest of your life. The stuff nightmares are made of.
My heart felt prayers to Terri’s parents on the loss of their daughter that they had to watch die because the court system refused to hear their plea’s. Again, I know that I would have done the same thing had I been in their shoes.
Here is the latest story and photo gallery.
More states need to consider this.
I find this amazingly interesting:Pope’s ‘Living Will’ Wants Life Support to the End.
In short this statement:
“The intrinsic value and the personal dignity of every human being does not change no matter what the concrete situation of his life,” he told doctors and ethics experts attending a Rome conference about patients in a vegetative state.
“The administration of water and food, even when provided by artificial means, always represents a natural means of preserving life, not a medical act,” he said. Denying them this treatment would amount to “euthanasia by omission.”
“Considerations about the ‘quality of life,’ often actually dictated by psychological, social and economic pressures, cannot take precedence over general principles,” he said.
Interesting concept… the courts need to take lessons from this man. After all, they are human beings just like Terri. Would they want to die that way? I think not. My issue is not over the right to die, but in the way it was done.
