This is what "Slidge" contributed and it''s opened a lot of eyes. It is exactly what Peach referred to.....
"Here is the 38-page findings made by the GAL (the Guardian ad Litem appointed by Jeb Bush in 2003)

It might be a bit more illuminating than a talk radio pundit, who obviously has an agenda and an axe to grind. The GAL is a neutral party, by law.
A key paragraph is, "After the malpractice case judgment, evidence of disaffection between the Schindlers and Michael Schiavo openly emerged for the first time. The Schindlers petitioned the court to remove Michael as Guardian. They made allegations that he was not caring for Theresa, and that his behavior was disruptive to Theresa’s treatment and condition. Proceedings concluded that there was no basis for the removal of Michael as Guardian Further, it was determined that he had been very aggressive and attentive in his care of Theresa. His demanding concern for her well being and meticulous care by the nursing home earned him the characterization by the administrator as “a nursing home administrator’s nightmare”. It is notable that through more than thirteen years after Theresa’s collapse, she has never had a bedsore."
The next year, he signed a DNR order, "based upon discussions and consultation with Theresa’s doctor, and was predicated on his reasoned belief that there was no longer any hope for Theresa’s recovery. It had taken Michael more than three years to accommodate this reality and he was beginning to accept the idea of allowing Theresa to die naturally rather than remain in the non-cognitive, vegetative state. It took Michael a long time to consider the prospect of getting on with his life – something he was actively encouraged to do by the Schindlers, long before enmity tore them apart. He was even encouraged by the Schindlers to date, and introduced his in-law family to women he was dating. But this was just prior to the malpractice case ending."
And as for being a leach, well, I'm sure they've failed to mention this on WBAL: "In response to Mr. Pearse’s report, Michael Schiavo filed a Suggestion of Bias against Mr. Pearse. This document notes that Mr. Pearse failed to mention in his report that Michael Schiavo had earlier, formally offered to divest himself entirely of his financial interest in the guardianship estate."
Read the whole thing. It's probably the only fair accounting of the entire incident, written by someone who legally had to remain unbiased.
This is certainly interesting, and I have never seen any of this before...thanks for bringing it to everyones attention...
