i think its very important for everyone over 18 to have a "living will" which states exactly what you want done to yourself if you are in a situation like Terri's. it doent take long and prbly doent cost much. my mother had a living will and she lived in fla. she was dying after heart surgery, i was kind of reluctant to let her go but the nurse talked to me about it and said "she did that living will for a reason, you cant go against her wishes because if she does survive this she will be on tubes and veg state for who knows "so we had to let her go=it was the hardest thing i ever went thru- i dont recommend it for anyone, but i would think that Terris husband would have rights= i know when my sister was dying of cancer her husband took over everything- we were out of the loop so to speak. i really dont understand it
