Kate Adamson is a woman who was in a situation similar to Terri's several years ago. In fact, her doctors had decided that she had no hope of recovery and that her feeding tube should be removed. For 8 days she was starved, and descibes it as "one of the most painful experiences you can imagine." Luckily her husband fought for her and she recovered with therapy and rehabilitation.
Another point that I haven't seen mentioned above: Terri's husband is so adamant that she not receive any nourishment by mouth that he has denied requests by her family that she be allowed to recieve Holy Communion before she dies. (She and her family are Catholic) This is perhaps Mr. Sciavo's most spiteful act to date.
There's more interesting information about her diagnosis and the agenda of the court appointed doctors in this article.
