It is remarkable that people who rail against National Health expenditures are gleefully willing to cast those principles aside and open the door to bankrupting medical expenditures upon those who have no chance to recover and whose existence would be absolute torture to any with consciousness. This case should have been ended as soon as the doctors stated she had no chance which was a dozen years ago. In the interim millions have been spent with no result except extending the misery of the victim.

Her husband unwisely resisted that diagnosis for several years and refused to pull the plug until it became undeniably clear that there was no chance of even minimal recovery. Since then he has been incessantly attacked with the most outrageous lies.

Having had to allow my beloved wife to go to the Lord I understand that his actions are not those which are caricatured by the haters here but rather those of one who held out against all hope in trying to attain his wife's recovery. My wife would have never wanted to be trapped in such misery as Terri and I would never have subjected her to it.

Uh huh. And you're a "lover of beautiful women," too, as you say.

Finally a post I can read with some sanity and so tear myself away from the machine and hope for no more posts today...don't we all have something else to be done?

Anyone?

A dozen years ago, her rehabilitation stopped. I believe that coincided with the malpractice settlement.
