Have you seen it? It raises a lot of questions about "quality of life," which is relative, I think. We've been talking about what we'd like to do if we became vegetative, or paralyzed, etc. It's all very difficult to think about, and it's difficult to know what it would be like. I'm glad Mike was able to tell his girlfriend he loved her. He probably needed to do it, and I bet she needed to hear it.
