Italians united on pulling the plug, the rule of law still far away: She has been dubbed "the Italian Terry Schiavo": Eluana Englaro, a woman in a persistent vegetative state after a car crash in 1992, whose father is strenuously fighting for the right to pull the plug. She was 20 years old when the accident devastated her brain without taking her life. Her body recovered from severe injuries; she breathes by herself but she shows no cortex activity, can't eat or drink and she is fed through a tube from her nose.
