Terry Schiavo's hospital gown appears on eBay
The Register ^ | Tuesday 31st January 2006 | Lester Haines

Updated Here's one eBay auction we don't think will be around for too long: your chance to secure Terry Schiavo's hospital gown:


Oh yes, you get her feeding tube, too. As the seller puts it:

Own this one-of-a-kind piece of history. I purchased this from a person who worked at the Hospice Center in Pinellas Park, Florida. The winner of this auction will also receive the actual feeding tube that was Terry's lifeline before her final days. No matter how you feel about this case, you cannot deny that this is an important part of history.

We make no comment. Reg readers will doubtless act according to their own consciences. ®

Update Terry Schiavo's hospital gown is no longer available on eBay. That took about 15 minutes.

Bootnote Thanks to Guy Thornton for the heads-up on this e-commerce initiative.

It would be so enlarged you probably couldn't afford the shipping.

The first disabled person murdered by court order?

Yes. I always refer to that event as "the Terri Schiavo murder." I get blank looks from everyone to whom I say it, which is depressing, but facts are facts.

I hope to one day see Ted Kennedy's liver for sale on Ebay.

It would make a killer doorstop.

This would be hysterical if not so pathetic.

They give confused looks when told she wasn't dying too. Sad.

Hard to believe the depravity of some people, and then again, not.

I would presume someone on staff stole it.

Maybe, but the one thing I would NOT presume is that it was in any way actually affiliated with Terri.
