Terri's tube was put in before she even left the first hospital -

She could not swallow then, nor could she pass the yearly swallow tests done on her in those first three critical years when she was having rigorous therapy.
I really didn't follow this case much. What I believed was going on was that there was a woman in a vegatative state. She was on life support. She had told her beloved husband she didn't want to live like that. He did everything he could for her.
From those naive initial beliefs, I have come to learn that there is much more to the story. Something is wrong with this picture.
It says she made progress while in the hospital.

If you keep shooting down rumors and mis-information what will people have to speculate about? LOL
