Weller is an attorney, not a doctor. She is no more qualified to determine TS's mental state than any other non-medical layperson.
Dr Cheshire Affidavit
Here is part of the Mayo Clinic's view on Dr. Chesire's conclusions:
Dr. William Cheshire was asked by the Florida Department of Children and Families to share his expertise related to potentially vulnerable adults. As part of this commitment, he was asked to render his professional opinion for the state of Florida in the case of Terri Schiavo. He observed the patient at her bedside and conducted a review of her medical history but did not conduct an examination.
Mayo Clinic recognizes that the standard of care for the evaluation of a comatose patient includes a detailed review of the patient’s history and previous evaluations as well as the performance of a comprehensive neurological examination. In some instances, electrophysiological and imaging studies may be used to establish a diagnosis.
So, Dr. Chesire did not do a medical examination that passes muster. Oh, and in his own affidavit admits that he himself did not see any evidence the TS was anyting other than in a PVS (though he does seem to be claiming psychic powers, bolded below):
Although Terri did not demonstrate during our 90-minute visit compelling evidence of verbalization, conscious awareness or volitional behavior, yet the visitor has the distinct sense of the presence of a living human being who seems at some level to be aware of some things around her"
Are those really the two best affidavits available? If so, this is a weak case.
If we ever see the autopsy reports we may see how much morphine Felos' hospice staff were forced to push into Terri's body to calm her down as she died...unless they limited pain meds and let her suffer so there would not be a chemical trail of evidence showing the extent of pain she suffered.
So, if there is evidence of lots of morphine, that is proof of a cover-up. However, if there is evidence of no morphine, that is also proof of a cover-up. Got it.
