Rest in Peace Terri Schiavo.

I have yet to form thought on how I feel about this.

But I do believe that her suffering was unneccessary.

You can always count on us for ruining solemn moments, eh?

She shouldn't have died.. Her husband is an asshole!

I can't blame her parents for wanting her alive, but I can't blame her husband for doing what she and others believed she wanted. However, I don't think it's right for her parents to have lied about her husband to the press and try to call him an abuser. This may be sad, but only because of the publicity. This is the way people die every day in hospices, and it's time the religious right and the disgracefully brainwashed ultraconservatives who have no business destroying the good name of republicanism gets out of our everyday lives. I just think it's sad when anybody dies and they become some tattered martyr like Ms. Schiavo, but it's almost sadder for her husband who now has to deal with this scorn for simply wanting to do what his wife wanted. I'm sure death would be an easier decision for him. I commend him for standing up for what his wife believed in.

the prolonged media coverage is really what upset me. Also, the fact that they took so long to do anything about her food tube.

Agreed. The whole damn thing was a circus.

yes its sad that she died, but the media has thrown the world overboard! everyone thinks that the husband wants this for money yet he has to pay for the medical bills! the family is going to be getting tons of money talking about their daughter's death. she had been like that for 15 years, isnt that suffering also? i think that the parents were being selfish for putting her through that. what was she benifiting from being kept alive. basically they were just putting off a funeral for 15 years and that is wrong. i understand no parent would want to give up their child, but who wants to force someone to be alive? the media has just made it so we can't decide between the two and hate ourselves if we do agree with only one! i feel bad for the husband and the parents, but most of all for her because she had to live with their decisions!

sorry...i had to let that out.
