The real question is what do they have to say?

"Still, he shies away from asking patients the toughest question of all — whether they wish life support to be ended — saying that it is too early to think about such applications."

As I understand it; locked-in syndrome is caused by a lesion of the pons. The pons doesn't have anything to do with consciousness or cognition except in acting as a bridge for sensory feedback. A person with a lesion of the pons cannot initiate motor activity or receive feedback from their extremities and trunk because the signal is severed above the brain-stem but below the cerebral cortices and limbic system. Consciousness is localizable to activity of the cortico-thalamic complex which doesn't involve the pons. The pons is a relay station between parts of the brain and the body. A person with locked-in syndrome can be fully rational and lucid while not being able to communicate at all. I would be asking is there any evidence that they are not? Are there any additional lesions affecting other brain areas associated with consciousness and cognition?
