First, an apology. I was caught up in the emotion of yesterday, so I should not have been so hotheaded.
I spoke with someone today, Jim Sedlak, who disputed that Terri spoke I want yesterday.
He is hoping that this was recorded. If so, then that would end the argument. Otherwise, I must conced it.
What Jim claims, on reliable authority, is that her parents have taught, in a very crude way, to say yes or no -- something like "yyyeeeehhhhh" or "nnnaaaahhh", and maybe you would have to be used to Terri saying that to realize she is saying "yes" or "no".
But a more interesting thing that Jim Sedlak said was that the parents, very early on, conceded that Terri was in a PVS, which she is not.
What apparently is broken in our legal system in that someone is a courtroom can "concede" something about a medical condition, and it cannot be appealed.
Sort of like Glenn Cunningham and the 4 minute mile...
Glenn was told he would never walk again, but he came very close to being the first to the 4 minute mile.
The analogy is that if Glenn Cunningham had something from 2nd grade that said he could not ever walk again, and the parents let that slide in courts, then they would strike his records from the record books because someone who cannot walk cannot set records in the mile run.
That is what is really stupid about this.
