    Yes... I am glad she doesn't have to suffer anymore.

    May she rest in peace... and her parents find peace too.

    Rest in peace Terri. Keep watch over your parents, ease their pain if you can.

    Terri's whole story from beginning to end has made me so sad.

    I feel sorry for everyone involved - Terri - her parents and her husband.

    I pray that her soul is finally at rest.

    I heard someone just say that this is judicial homicide. I can't help but agree and the precedent it sets scares me. I think Dr. Kevorkian is owed an apology. He is sitting in a cell somewhere for assisting people when their death wishes were well known. I have to pinch myself to believe that this has been allowed to happen.

    I really don't know how to feel about this topic. I was definately sad when I heard the announcement this morning on TV, that Terri had passed. If she was like this for 15 years, unable to speak, unable to feel pain, unable to do anything... I honestly have to say I would never want to live my life like she did. I can understand trying to keep her alive for a while, trying to see if she will recover... but 15 years? I feel terrible that she died, but 15 years is a terribly long time to live like that. I'm glad she is out of her misery, but wasn't there something they could have done to ease her pain and make her pass a little quickly? I mean, taking out her feeding tube and letting her suffer is a little inhumane to me.

    Rest in peace, Terri... Godspeed.

    RIP Terri....your battle is over now. Other battles are just beginning.
    Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, champagne in one hand and strawberries in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and screaming WOO HOO - What a Ride!

    It is sad that artaficialy keeping someone alive in hospital means feeding them. If people decide to stop eating and die does that mean they did not comit suicide? If I was kidnapped tomorrow and the person who took me never fed me and I died does that mean he did not murder me? Why do people get mad at other people who abanden their pets to starve to death, when it is apparently ok to do it to people?

    no sad faces from this household, only happy ones that shes been freed, although in a very cruel way, I'm willing to bet my left leg that she has absolute happiness right now

    R.I.P. Dear Terri
    I heard that her husband is having an autopsy done on her to see how far along her brain damage was.
    "To all the dogs I've loved before...Who traveled in & out my door...I'm glad you came along...I dedicate this song to all the dogs I've loved before"

  15. I think this is very sad. Rest in Peace Terri, you are a strong woman!

    Can't these people solve anything, now they are fighting over her ashes, the parents want to bury them where she was born, but her husband wants to put them where they got married.
