Minnesota Committee Approves Measure Helping Patients Like Terri Schiavo Email this article

Minnesota legislators have approved a measure backed by pro-life groups that would make sure patients like Terri Schiavo are not denied food and water that could lead to their death. The bill they approved would allow patients to continue receiving it even if they cannot express their own wishes.

During the Tuesday hearing, a paraplegic woman wrote a letter to lawmakers about how she had considered committing suicide but was glad now that she was still alive.
