I'm not so sure we agree, however. The greatest problem with the final outcome of this case is that it was in the hands of the wrong people. It is not up to you, or me, or the government to decide that it would be better to have a grave to visit than a hospital bed. That decision belonged to Terri's family, and her husband took himself out of that equation, in my opinion, when he in effect married another woman. Whether we agree with Terri's parents' position or not is not the point; they were the only family she had left, and should have been allowed to be the decision-makers.</p>tag:sursumcorda.salemsattic.com,2018:/isso/67/1932005-10-24T12:45:25ZForeigner<p>Yes...I finally agree with someone on this matter. I mean what good would it do the parents to have their daughter in the state that she was? Wouldn`t it be better to have a grave to visit and keep all the good memories alive, instead of watching their daughter helpless and brain dead in a bed, day in and day out? I belive that in this case it is diffcult to judge the respective parts, but I must say that I think the solution decided upon was for the best. It`s not worthy for a human being to stay on the earth if you are dependent on others for everything. Wouldn`t it be better to let her be happy in heaven, if we are so lucky that there is one?</p>
