Randy Travis' wife defied medical advice to 'pull the plug' during country star's stroke recovery battle

Randy Travis's wife, Mary, told Fox News Digital doctors informed her to pull the plug after the country music star's stroke in 2013. Randy Travis' wife believes there was "never a doubt" in her husband's head that he would make it through his debilitating stroke, even though doctors advised her to "pull the plug." During an interview with Fox News Digital, Mary explained a crucial moment in Travis' two-and-a-half-year health battle that stood out to her, and that was the moment doctors told her to end her husband's life. "I think Randy, there was never a doubt in Randy's mind that he could make it through it. It was that magical moment that I went to his bedside when they said, 'We need to pull the plug. He's got too many things going against him at that point.' He had gotten a staph infection and three other hospital-born bacterial viruses like Serratia, Pseudomonas, one thing after another, and the doctors were just saying, 'He just doesn't have the strength to get through this,'" Mary said.
