I'm shocked, stunned, and amazed Greta will cut away from the Scott Peterson case to talk about something else.

It's probably the same woman O'Reilly had on his show this evening. It was a chilling interview. She said she was aware of everything the whole time, but was unable to communicate. She was taken off of her feeding tube for 8 days and was in horrible pain. The husband said he realized she was responsive before the tube was removed, but it took 3 weeks to convince the doctors. She was then hooked back up to the feeding tube and therapy was started. To look at her now, one would never know what she has gone through.

"I saw her on O'Reilly. It was scary...She heard and knew everything."

She also was subjected to an operation, didn't get much anesthetic, and felt every part of it.

Barbaric.

Absolutely horrifying.

Greta is hurting to fill her time slot today. Caught off guard in Modesto with Scott Peterson's case postponed.

O'Reilly already did 5 minutes with this woman on his OWN
show, and now will interview her longer on Greta's.

The first interview focused on how TERRIBLY PAINFUL it is to
have your FEEDING TUBE removed.

The other MAJOR point was,
you can NEVER tell when someone who is apparently 'gone',
is really still alive and functioning and hearing every word, and could still snap out of it.

The GOOD NEWS is this woman is VERY INTERESTING to hear,
and the parallels to Terri Schiavo were NOT LOST on Bill.

BILL is coming around! He USED to only mimic M.S. and CNN's
drivel, like ~let the poor woman die in peace~

I will have both interviews on Tivo and either summarize or post the whole thing later.

Thank you for sharing this.

Greta didn't have the story but O'Reilly is repeating now for those who want to see it.

Sorry folks. I heard just what I wrote in the thread.

At least ORiely is now repeating for those who didn't see the same woman O'Reilly had on his show this evening.

Let's look at the bright side...at least some folks will see it repeated on O'Reilly that might have missed it if not for your thread.

I really hate to write what I think about all this Terry Story. As a physician I can only say you can not judge each case by what you hear on T.V. Unless I could review all the notes etc. I refuse to comment on these types of cases. Surely you all know that you can not base your beliefs on what you hear from the media. To make a educated opinion you would have to have been this person's physicians from the beginning of their disease. I am sorry but there are many different dimensions to these cases to boil them all down to such simple answers. I as a physician have taken care of many terminal patients and care for many in a nursing home. Some things that modern medicine can do by technology are not humane in any way. I know this and I for sure as heck would not want to be kept alive with a feeding tube under certain circumstances. And I'm sorry but when you marry your spouse is your next of kin under law.Conservatives are crapping in their own pampers wanting the GOVERNMENT to decide life and death decisions. I thought we supported marriage. I agree this case is awful because you have the husband and the womans family in court for over a decade arguing. You can hate all physicians as much as you want to but it will be a cold day in hell that I would want to be in her condition being keep alive by an artificial means with a tube placed surgically outside of my abdomen. And I admit she is probalby not brain dead(from what I have read) but her chances of getting better is 0%. I watched my Dad die a death he did not diserve but I would never have kept him "alive" for my own benefit.

Watch the interview. Video is shown of this woman during her ordeal. As I said, you'd never know it now by looking at her, but she looked to be in as bad of shape as Terri, at one time.

BTW...her doctors were saying the same about her that you say about Terri...0% for recovery. She's a walking, talking, nice looking woman now.
