There's no plug. That's one of the difficult aspects of this case.
She's not ON life support, other than requiring a feeding tube for nourishment.
She is conscious, but the question becomes one of whether she is actually alert, aware of her surroundings.
If she is, under the conditions in which she exists (I can't call it living), I would be begging to die.
I have seen the video tape her parents are showing to support their case. I don't think that what she evidences is much more than a reflex.
I do wonder about the criminal case implications against her husband, but if harm wasn't proven then, it's unlikely to be now.
I disagree with just pulling the tube and starving her to death, which is what brought her case to national attention, but I think that it would be reasonable to euthanize her, if a court would again order suspension of her feedings.
