Hypothetically speaking.....
If I were in a vegetative state, I would
want the plug pulled so my spouse would be able to get on with her life.
Particularly if she found someone to be with whom she loved and who loved her.
What would be the point of my keeping my spouse trapped in a marriage to a vegetable?
I wouldn't blame her one bit if she wanted to divorce me because she met and fell in love with someone else.
Like JG, I'm not all that familiar with the facts of the case, but I don't see how her husband is a scumbag.
If she could somehow make a conscious choice as to whether or not to let him get on with his life and chose not to, that, I think, would make her the scumbag.
