Sara Harvey's Continued Fight for Custody of Her Husband

A Chemung County woman is fighting for the custody of her husband, who's in a vegetative state.

Sara Harvey says she's just trying to get her husband, Gary, home where he belongs. "I want my husband home, my husband would want to be home with me, he would not want to be isolated in St. Joseph's Hospital or anywhere."

This is a common sense issue -- who among us would prefer living his/her final days cooped up in a stark institution over being at home with our loved ones?

Sara Harvey is so brave. Here she is, David up against Golliath. And she won't stop until she gets her husband home.

God bless you and your efforts.

Praying for Gary to be released from the grips of government control. Gary did not marry the county, he married Sara for better for worse in sickness and in health til death do they part....maybe I missed it but do the marriage vows include guardianship?

This story shakes me to the core. I try not to wish bad things upon people, even those who deserve it, but I find myself hoping all the players in this case who have worked so hard to deny Gary Harvey the very things they would want, would suffer a TBI or a stroke. Or even a nightly nightmare that they had one....

Correction to the story...Sara Harvey did not cut, nor did she attempt to cut, her husband's feeding tube.

there just has to be a special place in hell for Gary Harvey's guardian.

I pray Gary Harvey gets to go home.

I am outraged by how he and his wife are treated.
