A very personal view

Weaving together Jewish thought, Jewish law and her personal experiences Crossing the Rubicon has put together a very moving post on the Schiavo case. I (and everyone else) can nobly say "I wouldn't want that kind of treatment" or "I believe that we must maintain life at all costs." But I never (thank G-d) had to make such a decision. She once was in the position to make a similar choice.
(via Instapundit) Right Wing News has put together a very useful FAQ about the Schiavo case. Unfortunately there's been a lot of misinformation about the case and it's important to get our facts straight. He introduces some uncertainties that aren't usually amplified but otherwise this seems consistent with what we know from the MSM.
It shows that the sequence I outlined earlier was not correct. Apparently the nastiness is over money, not whether or not to believe there was any hope she would recover, as I had speculated.
