Terri Schiavo has died.

Well, it's happened. There's something seriously messed up with a society that treats it's animals better than a human being.



I heard a commentator last night say " Maybe if someone had asked Christopher Reeve when he was flying around as Superman if he would want to go on living without the use of his limbs or become what he had he would have said "pull the plug" too, but look at all the good that he did after the fall we would have missed if they had."

And that's true if you think about it. Maybe I would want my life ended if I suddenly lost all functioning of my body and I knew I would become a burden to someone. But would I feel differently after it happened? Would I want to live after all?

Yes it's a bit different with Terri because she was supposedly in a "vegetative state", but think about it?

Do you think there might be a possiblity that you would change your mind?

There's always a possibility for change. Now, I say that I would rather die than put my family in a position where they have to provide care for me for the rest of their lives--but who knows?
