Walking Dead: when do you give up hope?

Walking Dead Large 100

The Walking Dead delivered the best episode of the season on Tuesday night. Lori and Rick have eventually told each other every truth they possibly can and Glenn's finding his power and turning hott as a result.

Andrea unexpectedly handled Shane's man-gun and the Greene family's secret in the barn's been exposed.

The barn with the dark secret: filled with zombie family members. 

I've been thinking about it ...if my family got turned into zombies - would I keep them alive? Even if they were deadly dangerous? Even if it crushed me to see them locked up and in a Walking Dead state?

The answer: definitely, no question. Because you never know. As someone mentioned - I can't remember who said it but it's very true - if someone's got Schizophrenia you don't just give up hope on them and shoot them. You wait, you try everything to see if you can get them back.

Same thing with any other disease, which zombie'dom is. Even if there's no cure, there could be.

I've just realised ... it's very similar to people in coma's on life support too. I've always somehow believed that it's cruel to keep people alive like that but now, thinking about it, it's the same thing isn't it? Pulling the plug means you're giving up hope.

Can one go on for ever though? At what point do you stop? What if it's too much to cope with? When does one stop having hope? ... it's zombie'fying stuff.

I understand where that family is coming from, but for how long would they keep them in the barn? If the cure is found, would those walking dead family members be cured?
