Poll question: Choose now: Tubes or no tubes?

Edited on Fri Mar-25-05 02:22 PM by Modem Butterfly

What happened to Terri Schiavo, though horrible and tragic, is by no means unique. It could happen to anyone of us. So, if it happens to you, what would you want to have happen?

3. Assuming there is no legal document I've signed...

...it should go significant other, immediate family, extended family, then the state. Why anyone would want the government to have say over everyone's lives first is fucking beyond me.

6. conversely, if I got a brain, I think I'm stayin.

Even if I'm paralyzed, as long as I can think and read, and possibly communicate, that's good enough to stay alive.

7. I really want to hear from the folks who've voted to leave the tubes in

I'm curious what the reasoning is for that choice.

9. Although we differ on some of the roots of this whole issue...

You've been working it for quite some time now...

For that, you deserve a kick.

10. Thanks!

This whole issue is very near and dear to my heart, because of my own experiences with eating disorders and the right to die.
