yes the truth, and the truth is that indeed terri was not only brain dead but brain {{{{gone}}}}.

What exactly is your evidence of this "truth?"

The CAT scan. Haven't you seen it? It's been online for quite some time now. You did actually do some research on this case, didn't you? And by "research," I mean go over the actual court transcripts, review the medical evidence as recorded by the court, etc. and not just what the talking heads on TV are telling you.Here's a picture of Terri's CAT scan:Does that appear normal to you? Do you see that large, vaguely butterfly-shaped area taking up most of the center of the picture? That's cerebrospinal fluid. It should be lightly grey if there were cortical matter there. Here, let me show you the image of a normal 25-year-old with that of Schiavo's:Do those two scans look anything alike? Do you not see the big, gaping hole where her brain ought to be?And actually, that hole is a bit misleading because it isn't quite as big as it ought to be. That is, brain matter is somewhat compressed. Schiavo's cortex disintegrated, leaving the hole in the center, and the thin layer on the outside has now expanded since it is no longer pressed against the side of the skull. That's what that C-shaped area on the right side of the CAT scan is: More cerebrospinal fluid.Her brain was literally gone.

because he has another relationship, he cannot still love Terri and therefore is not capable of making a decision in her best interest.

Let us not forget that the reason Mr. Schiavo has this other relationship in the first place is because Terri's parents told him to do so.They now seem to be upset that he did what they told him to do on that one score but isn't willing to do what they're telling him to do on this other one.
