So I heard...but I'm still speechless:)
It's...it's...Rainbow Koolaide?
I am so disgusted,
but not surprised.
Hildy called it from the start.
I didn't realize you were dedicated to our thread! I'm delighted and thank you sincerely. The other side is simply intolerable and we're hoping to stay safe here. LOL
You need to read it (or watch) so you can tear apart the movie when it comes out.
tell that to Martha Stewart. she couldn't buy the verdict she wanted.
Don't worry my check in that secret account will clear... ;0)
Yes. She did. And I resisted until I read some of their testimony. Gruesome doesn't do it justice.
Let me know when you find a valid resource for a flat EEG conducted on Mrs. Schiavo. Thanks.
I am to the point where I truly don't know what to think or believe. I haven't read all of the documents, just the Wolfson report. I've heard on radio (which I've learned to take much of what I hear with a large grain of salt) that Terri was able to walk between parallel bars, and could speak single syllable words at the beginning of her hospitalization. Then the allegation was that through neglect, she deteriorated. My husband has told me that that is not possible. If she had those capabilities in the beginning, then there had to have been another event that caused additional brain damage for her to end up in the condition she's in. There is just so much "stuff" being thrown around, that it is difficult for me to sort it all out, and know what is true.
It's hard to believe,
harder to stomach
and impossible to imagine.
But I reckon it's true.
I will watch the Abram's replay just to see his face.
I was just providing a link in response to a question about whether or not Terri sat in a chair. :-)
It gets kind of old doing research for people; I've given ya'll a gazillion links over the last few days and beyond those in my freepmail, I'm bored with it.
So I'll tell you what, why don't you provide a link that she doesn't have a flat EEG. Oh, and my links are court documents so a newspaper article won't exactly do it. Thanks.
He/she is clearly from syracuse
What is the "other side"??
I request a different mod for this thread. You've chosen a side.
Here ya go :0)
The hospital discharge summary shows that she had the feeding tube inserted before she ever left the hospital - so it would be pretty difficult to walk between parallel bars.
I can't remember if she was even out of her coma or off the ventilator before she left the hospital.
Trinity's page has the discharge summary if your husband wants to read it.
Sanity versus Insanitry. Easy choice.
While working in a nursing home, I often had to care for a few younger people who were declared as being PVS...and being as we did not really know, what they could or could not sense, we always made the effort not to leave them in bed all the time, but rather get them up, seat them in their recliners, and always, always, tell them what we were doing, during their care, so that they would know what was going on...we just had to assume, that they could sense some of what was going on around them...
One young patient, had a hammock, that we installed over her bed, and it was hooked onto very large metal supports at the foot and head end of the bed...then once in it, her parents requested, that if we had time, would we please gently swing the hammock back and forth, kind of like rocking a child...we were always glad to do that...
It was always heartbreaking to see these young people in what was diagnosed as a PVS...but we always did our best to make sure that they were safe, well cared for, clean and dry, and hopefully, if they could sense anything, they sensed that we were there to make their lives as comfortable as possible...
Just my own experience...
Insanitry?
