A Prayer For Terry Schiavo

[PaulS]

I read that the eye movements may be a result of a reaction from the brain stem developing as opposed to the higher level, upper part of the brain. The drs. said that if you come out of a coma and don't respond fully in a very short time, this is what you are seeing and is a very, bad sign.

I agree that this is a terrible situation, however she has been in this condition for quite sometime, and as someone mentioned, there were three credible witnesses (her husband not counted there are still 2)... If this women didnt want to live like this why has she been prolonged in the first place. I am not a parent and cant understand their pain, however there comes a point where letting go is the right option... I realize starving to death isnt a pleasant way to go, but neither is living in a vegatative state on a feeding tube.

I suppose if she put this in writing this wouldnt be an issue today...
