    Eternal rest grant unto her o Lord,
    And may perpetual light shine on her.
    May she rest in peace.
    Amen.

    Starv her to death was cruel, couldn't they have given her something?

    One thing that bugs me is that her husband who now lives with another woman was the one who made the call. I think it should have been the parents who should have been in charge.

    I see what you're saying and I agree to some extent, but as I said, her parents are willing to take care of her and her existence or nonexistence will not affect anyone other than her loved ones...so it really shouldn't have gone to court. A court room isn't a place where you decide to kill a perfectly innocent person. Even murderers who receive the death sentence are treated better than Terri. At least they die in peace, not starving to death in agony.
    I'm afraid it is at the moment a country doesn't have clear legislation on the matter. Point your finger at the government, they failed to create clear rules.

    On one hand you know that it is highly unlikely that she'll get better. She hasnt improved over the 15 years. Yet her family claims that she "laughs, cries, responded to them and tried to talk", which I think means she is at the very least aware of SOMETHING, which means there still might be a very small percentage of life inside her. Ah, I'm on the fence.

    Does anyone know why Michael denied access to her family in her dying moments?

    He's a jerk, that's why.
