She was not brain dead, she was brain damaged.

She was starved and dehydrated to death by a court order.

That's the fact of the matter.

I obviously have no desire to live in the state she was in before she died, but I am extremely uncomfortable with how she died.

Actually, yes I do feel I have the right. I've been gone for awhile, i've came back to argue and be civil. If all you're going to do is bring up the past, then please don't respond to me.

Yet again, notice everyone how jilee of the bat responded to me?

Lets please not start this obsession again. Because, i'll start being a health forum again, and yes, I will start talking about that little son of yours.

But, im trying to come here and be mature about this. You obviously are still the same.

I didn't respond to you, I didn't confront you, I wasn't talking to you. So why'd you feel the need to respond to me?

Exactly. Think about it?

You like to create, stir up, and cause drama.

Im not here for that. Im here for a mature debate, with mature people. I already know you can't handle that. So please, don't respond to me. Thanks.

first of all, whats with people calling names around here still? Its like you can't argue unless you're attacking.

Second of all, I think everyone is trying to say what she did, and didn't want, none of us know so just stop. She's in a better place now, im sure she's much happier. I mean, she was in a bed, laying there, doing nothing for 15 years?


i'm sorry, maybe you've read my post wrong. That up there, is what I said. Anywhere in that paragraph does it say the words 'pro-life' or 'pro-choice?% no, I was asking everyone, yes, steen included. I'm sorry you've misunderstood me, it's okay. :wink:

You know I didn't read that right?

Well, I sure hope you don't think i'd waste my time on you.

I didn't adress you, therefor please don't talk to me. You're a child, having a child. Once again, im going to say I feel sorry for your son. He doesn't stand a chance in this world. Grow up. Leave me alone. Stop adressing me when I haven't spoken a word to you. It shows how desperate and pathetic you are.

Run along and find a daddy for your health questions son now.

You like that?

What I don't get is how the hell terri was murdered when all that happened was nature being allowed to run it's course. What ever happens to "gods will be done".. You know.. Sometimes gods will (if he exists) isn't always life.. So you either want god to have complete control, or you don't. I didn't know allowing somebody to die peacefully and finally be able to rest in peace is such an evil thing to do.. She's in a better place now.. Heaven.. The gray havens.. Whatever you want to call it.. If sending someone to either of those places rather then having them stuck here in earth is such a bad thing.. Well then I guess so be it.

You know.. The light may have been on.. But nobody was home.

Brain damaged, o.K. But, notice, I didn't say she was brain dead to begin with now did i?
The fact of the matter still remains that it isn't our decision and has nothing to do with us! Just make sure that you have your living will the way you want it and hope someone in your family doesn't decide to keep you alive against your will for 15 years in a state where you have no idea what is going on. Or that you don't have a living will and someone who you don't want having control over what happens to you, ends up letting you die when you wanted to live life as a vegetable. Either way, all we can do is make sure our wishes are known and legally documented.

and again, prolifers lie like if they are unable not to. I didn't say anything about "acceptable."

you made claims about starvation being unnatural, and I merely pointed out that you were wrong.


That you seek to misrepresent this merely shows how incredibly dishonest you actually are.

It is very telling how much prolifers lie.

When you are pre-death, your system is shutting down, you do not want food, water, ice chips, nothing, just peace, you do not want to be forced or pushed, this is very much, completely natural.
Sincerely,

Probably herself, we both know that she is good @ talking to herself in the mirror.

I have learned that most of the pro-lifers here want to control pretty-much everyone's body and mind and tell them what to do and not allow people their choices, whether they are pregnant or pre-death and if they are pre-death they(the pro-lifers) want to put food in them and water and and watch them choke, that is really thoughtful of them. Most of the pro-lifers here do not care about quality of life, the just want women to keep breeding all the time, allowing their to be more abused neglected, unloved and unfed children in the world and in the system, how sad they are, what losers they are.
Sincerely,
sandy

you think starving is natural? Really?!
imbecille illiterate person, yes in nature, many deaths happen from starvation. So yes, it is very natural.

human or animal steen because it most definitly is not a natural way for a human being to die,it might be in your sick and twisted mind but not in the rest of the civilised world


ps if you are going to call someone else illiterate steen,you really should make sure your posts are error free,because from here you are the one who cannot read or spell.

wow, someone's missing the point. Talk about falsely framing a position. And some of the "pro-choice" members talk about some of the "pro-life" members making false generilizations against the other side. I dunno if you've ever said anything about that sandy, but be consistent. I don't doubt most people who call themselves pro-choice do so sincerely, but so do people who call themselves pro-life. I doubt it's about controlling anyone's body, that's not the objective. And what's with all your red herrings? Are you implying abortion reduces abuse and neglect? Please show me the numbers to back up that claim. I guess your logic is by removing potential beings who could be abused, you are reducing it, but hey, that's a great reason to justify killing life. Yea, i'm a loser for thinking abortion more often than not isn't the best answer to certain problems. But hey, I guess it's the individuals beloved choice no matter what the nature of the act is.

Death from dehydration and/or starvation is "natural." however, purposefully not feeding or hydrating someone to achieve the objective of death is not very natural.
