What a hero
well, if her own flesh and blood are wrong about her wishes and only selfishly prolonging her shell's life, then yes, he is a hero.

it's a lot harder to make the tough decision (even when it's what she wanted) then to turn a blind eye to the reality of the situtation and keep her alive (against her wishes) in 'hopes' of a meaningful recovery.

i'd say it takes much more strength of character to let go of her then to keep holding on because you're unwilling to let go. i think i'd call it noble even, to put her wishes ahead of his own.
