Reply #26: I do not see this as any political football [View All]

I wonder why he just doesn't divorce her and let her parents deal with it. They had her for much longer than he did. Any parent would feel abused by this situation. I don't believe that a spouse's wishes should prevail over a family's. We all know that there are spouses and then, there are spouses.

Why does he care if her family takes her and loves her until they are ready for her to die? After all, he has stopped loving her, but they haven't.

It was also my understanding that there was a considerable amount of money involved, and that money was supposed to go for all sorts of therapy for her, which, to my knowledge, she has not received, or so her family claims. At one point, he sued for the money to care for her. This was predicated on many, many years of therapy and care. This fight has been going on for over five years. I would like to know why he just doesn't let her go. After all, if she is in a vegetative state and considered brain dead, she has no feelings, but her family does. They, the family, need to exhaust all remedies in order to let her go. Some of those remedies could work. I know personally that brain damage can repair itself, of course, to different degrees. After all, it's not hurting her if she is indeed braindead. What's the problem?
