Food: Szechuan Chicken - because I like to think of myself as "spicy". Moment: Really hard, but probably the first time I laid eyes on my son.

Food: A special meat loaf. Easy, plain, comfortable, nourishing, with a variety of ingredients that make an enjoyable combination. Moment: If you have seen the movie "You've got Mail" with Meg Ryan and Tom Hanks then you know that they experience this moment when she realizes that the biggest pain in her butt is also the love of her life. I have had that moment and can say it was without a doubt the most profound, confusing, awful, wonderful, devastating, exciting moment of my life. It changed EVERYTHING.

Food: Salsa~ Colorful and spicy but made with healthy ingredients (it's my favorite food ) Moment: The minute I looked into my newborn sons eyes. HE was the first person that I had met that was a "part" of me. My love for him was endless.

Tupac? LOL I'd say family people, but they're met already so I'm not going to count them. I have no idea.

Now that's a touchy question. I've been reading the News and Views concerning this and I have found myself to be a part of the minority, at least as far as TVCH is concerned. I'll answer it this way...this situation has made me rethink and reconsider my views on Euthanasia. When my Dad was in the final stages of Cancer, he didn't eat very much. His body began to burn his muscle fiber into energy to keep him alive. I understand that is common in Cancer victims; still, he became a frail image of himself at the end. His last week on this earth he spent in the hospital and he was hooked up to a morphine pump. We as the family were able to pump morphine through the pump into him, every six minutes, I think it was...because he was unable to do it himself. We never once thought he was suffering, yet, the nurses in an unspoken code (unspoken as they conveyed to us that this way he will go quickly)...urged us to keep up with the Morphine until he passed. In the end he was comfortable and I think he suffered very little...yet, he didn't starve to death. I can't help but feel that on some sub-consious, primal, fight for survival level...She's screaming for food and water. But no one will ever know for sure.

I am sure that Terri is in no pain but I think it is inhumane to not give food or water to someone. If her parents want to take care of her, I think that they should be allowed to.

I agree with both of you. When my mom passed 2 years ago, she decided when she wanted to eat/drink or not. We kept offering but in the end, she did stop requesting ... but that was her choice. She passed very peacefully and did not look like she was in pain. I also think it's inhumane to refuse food or water. Thank you FM. NEW QUESTION If you won the lottery, what's the first thing you'd buy?

I would buy my freedom from housework. Ditch the house, buy a mini-van and hit the road with hubby.

A condo for my mother (no house because she's way too much a "city person"). But then again, I can't say that's the FIRST thing I'd buy, because she's in another city, and that would take more time; it would be my first priority though. The first thing I'd buy the moment the cash was in the account would be a new car. I don't have a car and a brand new one would be nice. Perhaps one of those hybrid models.
