However, I regard the brain as the basis of a person and if vital sections are dead, they will never reheal and are gone forever. The impossible can happen but there is no basis for hope. For me, a CAT scan would be the incontrovertible proof and the end of the world. Maybe I'm not subject to wishful thinking and realise that once hope is gone, you must leave and look for hope about something else. I keep wondering whether this use of logic makes me inhuman or human, rather than animal. Matthew Greet But we must kill them. We must incinerate them. Pig after pig, cow after cow, village after village, army after army. And they call me an assassin. What do you call it when the assassins accuse the assassin? They lie. They lie and we must be merciful to those who lie. - Colonol Kurtz, Apocalypse Now.

Just because you love someone doesn't render you incapable of realising that the best thing to do is let go.
