two full trials were held for the sole purpose of determining what Terri's wishes were prior her collapse and brain stem injury. The testimony of friends and family members were taken. It was determined based on "clear and convincing evidence" that it was Terri's wish not to be kept alive by artificial means. I think that is getting lost in the shuffle. The parents have disagreed with that ruling which is understandable, but apparently, many people knew what her thoughts were on this sort of decision
