Define what "vegetable" means, and we can go from there. Convince me that your answers are something more than "I couldn't imagine living like that" when you look at her.

stop being obtuse. this isn't about her suffering. she no longer has the ability to suffer. the suffering that would be ending would that of her loved ones who have to see her kept in a pvs with no hope of recovery.
what this is about is following her wishes for her to not have to 'suffer' the indignity of being kept alive when there is no hope, to not be kept alive artificially (and if she needs a surgical implant in order to ingest food without choking, that's definatly artificial life support).
