Doctor McCoy's own father was in a situation very much like Terri Schiavo; one of the torrments he carried with him throughout his life, was his own father's death. He was his father's doctor, and removed his life suppot systems - and watched his passing; soon thereafter a cure was discovered.
I don't know all the cirumstances of the Schiavo case; I know how I feel about myself - or even the critical care patiences I work around at the State School. I would not wish to "live" as she is now; however, what about care and recovery? What about the wishes of the husband, her family, or the many families who are similarly in her case? What about "death wishes," the elderly, mentally/physically disabled?
What about you?
