I saw the Cooper show last night.The guardian said he thought that the rift between Michael and the parents may have ocurred at a time when Michael accepted what all the doctors had been saying, that Terri was brain dead, and the parents could not accept it. If Euthanasia was legal then Michael could just say it was euthanasia, instead he has to state that these were Terri's wishes. If Euthanaisia was legal, it would be possible to medicate Terri. Chopra had some interesting points. He said that both sides were coming from love and compassion. He said that with the advance in science we have defined death. He said that if you take an organ out of the body, you can keep it alive in a petri dish, but that does not constitute life. He said Terri's eeg was non-existent, therefore she is already dead according to science. He also said she had no awareness and could not suffer.
