Terri Schiavo

From a legal stand point, I do not agree with the removal of Terri Schiavo's feeding tube because there was not a written document or proof of the fact that Terri Schiavo told Mike Schiavo that if she ever was in a vegetative state, she did not want to be kept alive. I find it odd that Mike Schiavo did not say this until it had been over 10 years since she came into that state. After he had found another woman and had children with her. I feel that the parents should have had more of a say in what became of their daughter because it appears that Mike Schiavo did not care. (http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/21134540/vp/11992066#11992066)

I feel that this move was appropriate because it was a very controversial matter.

I do not feel that anybody else other than the family members should have the authority to decide whether one should be removed from life support, especially not if the family members are willing to pay to keep her alive.
