Minimally conscious? Is that like kinda pregnant? There is no consciousness here, since the areas that control that function in the brain is liquid...it has no electrical waves that would determine any concept of conscious.

So your question is moot as she's not even a vegetable...more like a machine...with only respiratory functions going.

Having been in my own similar situation in having to remove the feeding tube from my mother, I'll tell you the decision every step of the way was the quality of life. We kept her on a minimum of drugs (only for apparent discomfort) and let nature take her like it has for billions of others.

I see Terri in a real "limbo"...her soul (if there is such) no longer resides in her body...all that remains is the infrastructure...a burned out building per se...and if those who really did believe in such would want to reunite the two so she could meet that invisible cloud being.
