Gerald,

Your bewilderment is understandable.  The desire not to be kept alive
by artificial means is not the same as a desire not to live at all. 
Nevertheless, Judge Greer ordered that no one is allowed to try to
feed Terri.  In fact, there are two policemen guarding her to make
sure that no one does.  Judge Greer wouldn't even allow a trial period
of therapy and rehabilitation to see if it would be possible for Terri
to be spoon fed.  In other words, her husband, his lawyers, and the
judge are intent on killing her.

For more information on this case, see this web site:

For some quick insight into why her husband might want her dead, be
sure to read the following two letters that were recently sent to Jeb
Bush:
