Family Forum / Marriage / Divorce / March 2005Federal Appeals Court Rides Again! :(
Just when you thought it was over... "We are from the Government, and we are here to help!" http://news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=story&u=/ap/20050330/ap_on_re_us/brain_damaged_woman What a bunch of a.sholes. Leave the man and what is left of his wife in peace! Well, I for one didn't think it was over - not really. Why? Because I am slowly learning never to underestimate the idiocy of mankind. You should try it sometime. See, then ya can't be disappointed. And as you can tell, it's working admirably over here. > Just when you thought it was over... > > "We are from the Government, and we are here to help!" http://news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=story&u=/ap/20050330/ap_on_re_us/brain_damag ed_woman > What a bunch of a.sholes. > > Leave the man and what is left of his wife in peace! > Bill in Co. wrote: > Well, I for one didn't think it was over - not really.

And as you can tell, it's working admirably over here. Based on the majority of your posts, I think you're constantly disappointed, almost to the point of purposely looking for disappointment just to prove your point, regardless of how you spin it. >> Bill in Co. wrote: >> Well, I for one didn't think it was over - not really.

Terri has been going for 12 or 13 days without nourishment or water. She just doesn't seem like someone who WANTS to die. Best - Fido Just because a physical body has the capacity to keep going does not mean that the spirit inside it wants to. Imagine yourself in a completely isolating jail cell. There is a tap to allow water to come in, and there is an automated door to allow food to reach you - but there is NO ability to communicate with ANYONE on the outside EVER. Your screams are not heard because the cell is soundproof. There is NO ONE for YOU to appeal to! It is worse than the "life" sentences we give to murderers. Yes, murderers have rights! They can appeal! They can eat 3 square meals per day, and exercise, even socialize with other prisoners! But not Terri. By artificailly keeping Terri alive, we sentence her to a long life of solitary confinement from which she will not be released until society has exacted the ultimate price, and she dies - you know, when her body simply ceases to function at all. What a lonely, long, slow painful death Terri will have in store if the government screws up now. And all because we refuse to admit the truth, grieve, and move on. What an advanced society we have become. NOT! :( >> Just when you thought it was over... >> [quoted text clipped - 12 lines] > >Best - Fido > But not Terri.

Does this mean that you think Terri has awareness? Best - Fido >>But not Terri.

Crimeny, certain parts of her brain have dissolved! She ain't there anymore folks. This is why I have a living will, and durable power of attorney...

Fido, yesterday the neuro said she's already gone. Even if they put the tubes back in, her kidneys are shot and she'll probably die anyway. She hasn't urinated all week. > Crimeny, certain parts of her brain have dissolved! She ain't there > anymore folks. Correct. The poor lady's been dead since her heart attack. And Johnny Cochran died today in his hospice. Wonder why nobody's complaining about that. All he had was a brain tumor. Apparently, his cerebral cortex was still functional. - Saul Want has nothing to do with it. It just takes time to run out of gas and die. | > Just when you thought it was over... | > [quoted text clipped - 12 lines] | | Best - Fido |
