MA has stressed that she believes Michael Schiavo's story of Teri's verbal statement of living will. If she did indeed make her will known to him "Whose body" becomes an issue as much as it would be if she had asked to be kept alive at all costs. Or, at least it would seem so.

I imagine MA would be among the first to take that bullet and her kindness and empathy are not in question but the "whose body" references seem to be connected to an issue more near and dear to her.

As to who would take a bullet, the answer is, someone who has a family, children, etc. A childless recluse with few friends, no significant relationship and a self absorbed environment will have a more difficult time understanding your message.
