Here, I am confused again. I do agree that Terri is in all likelihood gone from that body, however the body still moves involuntarily. If the body functions at all, it means nerves are still working. If nerves are still working, doesn't that mean on some level the body would experience pain?Originally Posted by Raistlin
Then again, when does a human body go from being human to just being a body? Is it right to let a body die like that?
I don't really understand the hatred of euthanasia in this country. We let criminals die in similar methods, but we can't let someone choose to die this way? We can't let people who will never live again go this way?
I do tend to forget, though. Not many see criminals as real people.
I just don't understand the mindset that wants to keep this body alive. I'm not an expert on anything, but I have been looking into this, and I've seen pictures of Terri. It is very, very hard to believe, just by her eyes, that the person is there anymore, or even that the person is capable of ever being there again.
