well, i haven't the time/patience to read all the posts above mine, but my opinion, in brief, is that 1) any person should have the right to die, if they so desire, and 2) it wasn't up to her parents, but, rather, her husband, so all the appeals to the SC, etc were quite useless and really just a pain in the ass to hear about
in my mind, she's been in that condition for 15 years, she simply wasn't going to get better w/ a feeding tube stuffed in her. is it cruel & unusual to take it out & let her die sans nourishment? perhaps. but, not to sound too cold or cruel, that's life. seems pretty cruel & unusual to keep someone alive in that condition with no real hope for chance of success. and all the videos of her family waving things around her, showing her "following" the movement? IMO, quite demeaning. those sort of antics are typically reserved for babies and animals.
