Terri Schiavo
I just hope that after all this Terri-Schiavo-feeding-tube-mess that more people will make it crystal clear what they want done if they are ever in that position. Write it down, sign it. Otherwise the government is going to decide for you. Or someone else is going to make the wrong decision for you.
About this particular case - I don't know if I agree with removing a feeding tube. Machines that keep the body alive are one thing, but starving a person... I'm not sure. And that's why this case is so sad, and it's too bad that no one knew for sure what Terri wanted.
Scribble your wishes down on a paper, sign it and put it in your jewelry box - tell everyone where it is. Then you'll be safe if it happens to you. No, that's not a legal document, but it's better than nothing.
I'm going to bed now.
