Schiavo: Kill or let live?

Recently the U.S. government was going absolutely bonkers over this thing called the Terry Shiavo case. Essentially there is this woman who has been in a deep coma for about 14, 15 years. He body is ravaged by this, totally atrophied and she only has about half of her brain undamaged from the injury and the life support. Hey, no big deal, right? This happens every day, right? Nobody cares, right? Wrong. The fam wants her on life support(why, kill her and move on!!!) but the husband wants to kill her. Now, the Right is using this as a total political football. They get to look like knights in shining armor. If they do save Terry's "life" they look like freaking paladins, nobles, questors for all that is right and true. And if they fail? A well, they gave it the good old college try and to some people they look like heroes. Problem is, the public isn't buying it. In polls numbers show time and time again that more than 60 percent think that the spouse should decide medical things like this if the spouse is incapacitated. Thing is, I've always thought that God's will be done. In any other time period in history this woman would be dead. God, in his infinite wisdom has chosen to not let this woman recover. She didn't recover today, nor will she recover tomorrow. 14 years she hasn't recover, i don't think she ever will. Who are we to get in the way of God's divine plan on this?
