How long after Terri's "accident" was the settlement reached?

I believe the settlements were reached in 1992.

From what I've gathered on the web:

In August 1992 Terri was awarded $250,000 in a malpractice settlement.

In November 1992 Terri was awarded $1.4 million in malpractice trial.

The same month Michael Schiavo was awarded $600,000 in malpractice trial.

In January 1993, a jury awarded Michael Schiavo $350,000 for loss of consortium, and $750,000 went into a medical trust for all of Terri's future rehabilitative care.

He discontinued all rehabilitative care in February 1993.
