Reading the case scenario, I would like to mention that I do not agree with the court’s final decision i.e in removing away the feeding tube. This is because the method followed to a great extent would be harsh and this for sure would lead to the death of the 41- year old brain damaged women rather, it can be said that she was brainly dead and this way is one of the most negative form to end up life. Therefore, my ethics does not really support this concept ("Italy’s “Terri Schiavo” Dies Suddenly", 2018).
