On Vegetative States
I would just like to put this on the permanent (well, Tumblr) record: I don’t care what any neurological tests say: if I ever seem like I’m in a persistent vegetative state, I want the plug pulled as soon as possible. Right away. That day. In fact, don’t we all think it’s actually *worse* to be conscious but appear vegetative than it is to be actually vegetative? (And don’t give me “The Diving Bell and the Butterfly.” I’m not even writing a book now.) Basically, if it seems like I’m never going to not need help going to the bathroom, unless I can and do say otherwise, please actually murder me. Try to do it in a way where you won’t get caught, but fall back on this blog post. (Jury, do not convict!) Thanks!
