In the abstract, yes it does. What you are intentionally ignoring is the 14 years that have stood between her collapse and now. M. Schiavo didnt just abandon her, there were therapies tried and failed. Doctors have given their opinions and he has chosen, based on their familial conversations between spouses. Death is not the important issue in this, its the decision that terri made about how she would NOT want to live.

I would certainly be willing to change my position if unbiased evidence was given that she was ambulatory during the first two years.
