organized religion is soooo scary. thank MY god i was brought up like i was.

EbdeavorFreedom...That is NOT how I think. That is how the Asians think.Although when I started having Epileptic Seizures in the 60's (born in 1962) I got put in a Mental Health place (since seizures occur in the brain). They had me sexually fixed (vasectomy) which was done to all patients who get locked away. When I turned Legal Age, there was an Epilepsy Society, so I got moved to a Home for the Handicapped, as the safety of thousands is more important than the satisfaction of just one.

Hmmm so we should murder all children with disabilities? or put down as you say so euphemistically. Would that include the 40 million American autistic children in this country?Segregation too, just put us all in the nursing homes and institutions so we can be quietly starved and dehydrated by people who think like you.God Help Us

Everyone has their own say, but it was murder. And she wasnt brain dead, she moved you dumbass. You people keep talking about his over and over. Think of her family and everything else. Just like this country, self centered media addicts. Go wipe your ass for a second or something.. Jerk off, whatever. Just keep your mouth from going on and on and on and on. Theres no reason to be arguing on this poor girls end.

Brain dead people are already dead...

Living Wills do nothing to preserve your life and everything to put you at risk. Did you even know that the living will is a document promoted by right to die groups? If you really want to protect your life get a durable Power of Attorney or a Will to Live.

EndeavorFreedom, just wanted to salute you there. I'm a nurse on a Spinal Cord Rehab Unit and I know just how amazing people with SCI can be. Keep at it and may God bless you, Elizabeth

She wouldn't need to be dehydrated if voluntary euthanasia was legal. You're partially responsible for the inhumane situation you're railing against.

this is bullshit its okay to pull the plug on someone like terri but it isn't okay for a regular person to kill someone what has america come to?

You made this video to fit your narrow agenda. How many people in their 20s have a living will? Oral directives are legal in Florida. Medical treatment is withheld all the time on request from the patient. Pretty soon you'll try making it so not even living wills or POAs are followed as you would think the person was in a state of duress. People have a right to self-determination.

Ive read the bible through and through I've also read the missing books that we left out of the bible. You made a statement saying someone would go to hell and even those who believe the same would. This is blasphemy no matter how you splice it. You are not God and you do not have the authority to say such things. Blasphemy is the only unforgiveable sin according to the bible.

Joe Scarborough is a doctor? I think not. She was not medicated for pain. She did not have the brain capacity left to experience pain or even register it. Her brain stem could only give reflex reactions. If an animal has that much brain damage it would be humanely put to sleep. Do you suggest we should have done the same thing to terri?

You are not in a comparable situation. Could Terri type? Could she speak? Could she eat on her own? Is your cerebral cortex destroyed? No neither of this is true. Comparing yourself to her situation is like saying to a double amputee that they only have arm troubles

She had 3 years of rehabilitation including experimental therapy. She had speech therapy she showed no signs of improvement. Either you're being dishonest or hammesfahr is as she did have Therapy! How long do you think insurance companies or even government subsidized medical treatment can go on for without improvement? They don't just give you a free pass for infinite amounts of therapy.

Dr. Hammesfahr is a quack. He's not board certified and continuously lies about a nobel prize nomination he did not receive. He has published no peer reviewed articles and has done no controlled studies to show his methods work. He runs a cash only operation. Please tell me you're not propping up this guy as credible? If you had someone you loved would you let Hammesfahr take care of them?

I am in a comparable situation. I am a quadriplegic and have had a feeding tube. why do you think I am so passionate about this?

I didn't block anything all your comments are there. I support free speech and dialogue.

and Dr. Hammesfahr believes that Terri is being kept to a lower level of function by her being denied opportunities to do anything, have any rehabilitation, and that she her improvement is being sabotaged by her being kept in isolation, with very few visitors or other input. Dr. Hammesfahr revealed that Larry King had suggested to Michael Schiavo that he let Mr. King's news crew go in to film Terri, to settle once and for all what Terri's condition is, and that Michael REFUSED!

Hmm I apologize youtube was being slow I thought it didn't post several times. The fact remains though the information I have provided is correct. Unless you've been in comparable situation you have no right to tell people who is or isn't going to hell that itself is blasphemy.

Dr. Hammesfahr revealed that Terri has at least 75% functional brain tissue and that the stories circulating in the media about a head full of fluid "only" are totally false. He has had patients with less brain function doing much more than Terri is doing.
