TO: David M. Huntwork & all... 1990 - NOT just coma, it was a 'brief' coma. - In 1990, Terri was in a (relatively) brief coma. This (relatively) brief coma lasted just several weeks, and Terri awoke from this brief coma.

In this good article, this is a major flaw. So, I'll rewrite the sentence for David:

*** In February 1990, a sudden loss of oxygen to the brain left Theresa Marie Schindler (/schiavo) in a brief coma that lasted for several weeks. After several weeks, Terri awoke from the coma and was in a profoundly incapacitated state. ***

I just quickly went through the Terri's Fight Site to see if I could find mention of the coma - I didn't find it. In the last six weeks, I remember reading on Terri's website or elsewhere, that after the incident in Feb 1990, Terri was in a coma for several weeks. But she awoke / or was awaken from that coma after a few weeks.

And, it's too bad this article starts and ends with quotes from leaders who had strong words, but not enough action to save Terri.

Thank you for correcting it. I am sick of people getting that fact wrong!

Not enough action is right. What a travesty!!!
