Dr. Hammesfahr and Dr. William Maxfield, a specialist in radiology and nuclear medicine from Tampa, examined Terri in September. Both doctors, recruited by the Schindlers, testified they do not believe Terri is in a persistent vegetative state. They also testified she could be helped by various experimental therapies, including sessions in a hyperbaric chamber, oxygenating her blood under high pressure and giving her drugs that would increase blood flow to her brain.

Dr. Maxfield testified that he thought Terri once tried to sing along to the music being played, that she recognized her mother, that she focused on moving objects and reacted to lights.
