My understanding is that Terry Schiavo's family was willing to bear the cost of keeping her alive. Why would you not want to go ahead and allow a person's mother and father to do that if it's not going to cost you anything?
He was next of kin. That's all that matters if one doesn't have an advance directive.
That's all that matters in the eyes of the law...but there is a difference between legal and right.
Slavery was legal, that didn't make it right.
Segregation was legal, that didn't make it right.
Women were legally denied a vote, that didn't make it right.
But I thought righties supported the sanctity of marriage?? As her husband shouldn't he be the one to make that decision and express her wishes since she could not??
