1. I have to agree with you there.
I was with both my father and my mother when they passed away, and both times it was a very serene and, yes, even beautiful moment. There is peace in letting go.

3. interesting point
Given what most conservatives claim to believe about the existence and nature of an afterlife, you'd think they'd be happy to let her go. Surely heaven beats what she's going through now.

Unless:

-They think she's not Christian enough to go to heaven.

or...

-They're (what a surprise) totally full of shit about their religious beliefs and are only using Schiavo to advance their agenda.

6. Wow, that's outstanding way to shift the point of view...I'm nominating
Just a different to frame an argument, even for one as delicate as this.
