I've lost a brother to PVS, my family had the plug pulled. What made it worse was he was an infant, not but a month old, I don't think many here has ever held nor seen any creature in their arms so tiny, wounded, helpless as he was.
That having been said, I don't think I could ever personally pull the plug, I could accept it had it been their wishes, I can also accept the fact that nature has it's own agenda and can handle itself. But no I could not personally pull the plug, maybe I'm weak for it.
Also, it's one thing to take someone off life support that would keep them alive in spite of what nature intends, that is not Euthenasia. Mercy killing to me is a bullshit concept and it's murder. It's one thing to deny someone life, it's another to let nature occur.
