    IF they truely believed the husband had engaged in foul play...why wait til now to bring it up? Wouldn't it have been easier to prove much earlier in the process?
    They did, back in 2002.

    That said, I can see both sides. I feel it is disgusting that this woman is being starved to death. I don't care if she can feel pain or not (and if she can't, what's with the morphine drip?). Allowing another human being to starve to death is horrendous. If an inmate on death row were found starved to death, there would be a massive investigation and several heads rolling of those "in charge". This woman has committed no crime. Heck, if someone went to a Humane Society and found dogs and cats starved to death, you can't tell me an investigation would be launched there as well. I just cannot grasp why letting Terri starve to death is okay. It isn't. Plain and simple.
    Because Terri never wanted to 'live' like this. This is all about following Terri's wishes.

    To me, the whole "In sickness and in health, 'Til death do us part" thing means until DEATH do us part. I *can* say that (God forbid), if anything like this were to happen to my husband, I would remain loyal to him until death parted us. Not until I decided it was long enough, I needed to move on and have children by some other person while my husband lay in a hospital somewhere. Absolutely not. So for that reason alone, I find him repulsive.
    After trying to help her from 1990 to 1998, and finding out that nothing could be done to help her recover as most of her brain was GONE, he has decided to fulfill her wishes of not wanting to 'live' like this. To me, she died years ago. He is still married to her because he KNOWS that her parents will not follow through with her wishes, so he is taking care of HIS WIFE. As said in the news, he's there quite often at the hospital/hospice with her and making sure she is taken care of. I see him following through with his vows explicitly.
