At this point I am in good condition. I would think that I would enjoy my life no matter what. I wouldn't want a feeding tube pulled if that was the only medical attention I needed to live. But if machines were breathing for me and regulating everything for me, and I was brain dead then I would say pull it.

I enjoy life too much to just say I could never live like that. I've seen a guy with Cerebral Palsy that couldn't eat solid food, was in a wheel chair, and had to use a special computer operated with his toe to communicate that had such a zest for life. But there are so many that would choose not to live that way. (He messed with people's heads too. He would trick new people into dumping him out of his wheel chair. You'd be afraid you had hurt him and when you rolled him over to help he'd have this big smile on his face and just be laughing his butt off.)

At this point I would say let me live.
