That Terri Schiavo case is pretty sad. I have followed it a bit the past few weeks and it perplexes me. Why don't more people have a living will? I mean, I have one and I don't really have much to speak of...well...except debt and I spread that out evenly to all my friends. ;o) My Grandpa died late last year but he at least was able to tell the whole family that he wanted to go home (to die).

My immediate thoughts are that if her family wanted to take over, why wouldn't her husband want them to? I mean, I would totally yield to them and their wishes if I was in his position. Why make a bad situation even worse? Hmmmmmm...Money? I'm also certain that dying from hunger isn't really a pleasant way to die.
