I knew you were going to say "Look at the video" which is why I pre-emptively wrote "The problem to those not familiar with a vegetative state is that they think the person in that state in responding to them because there are facial gestures and eye following movememnt. In reality it is just a reflex action."

It seems you buy hook, line and sinker what Felos and Co. sell. Those are exactly the same words they say. Except it is only the Schindlers who are trying to get Terri out in the open for the whole world to witness. Why do you think that Michael Schiavo imposes such a strict blockade of any information about her current state? Do you really believe he is so concerned about her privacy? Do you think that if what Felos and Schiavo say is true, that the Schindlers would be so eager to have Terri appear before congress? If she really were so unresponsive, they would end up looking like fools. I suspect the Felos/Schiavo crew know that letting Terri be seen publicly is the worst that can happen to their side of the case, and they will fight this every step of the way (and it won't be because their worried about Terri's privacy rights).

Why do you assume medical information was witheld from the court about her condition?

In any case I agree with you that if she is not in a vegetative state just brain damaged she should be kept alive and this is murder.

Do you agree with me that if someone is in an actual vegetative state as diagnosed by doctors that you would be in favor of 'pulling the plug?'
