Terri Schiavo's "Non-Voluntary Passive Euthanasia"

Abstract: 4 pages in length. The writer briefly discusses how the changing face of life-sustaining treatment throughout American hospitals gives one pause as to the fundamental properties of patient wishes and how those desires may one day be completely overlooked in exchange for a more utilitarian form of health care. The Terri Schiavo case is used as an example of non-voluntary passive euthanasia. Bibliography lists 3 sources.
