Schiavo had irreversible brain damage-autopsy (Reuters). Reuters - Terri Schiavo, a Florida woman who died in March after a fierce right-to-die battle that involved the U.S. Congress, was severely brain damaged and had no hope of recovery, said a medical examiner who made the results of an autopsy public on Wednesday. [Yahoo! News: Top Stories]

Blind, a brain of less than half of the expected mass, and an inability to feed and nurish her body.  Yes, hind sight is 20/20, but I would probably have said the same thing if the results were less definitive.  She told her husband she did not want to live that way - and it was up to him to support her wishes, which he did.

Rest in peace
