WorldNetDaily has reported that in the first couple of years after her collapse Terri received rehabilitative therapy and progressed to the point of saying "no," according to nurses' notes. She would also say, "yes" and "stop that," according to her parents. But in 1993, following the malpractice-suit awards, the therapy was discontinued and Terri was relocated by her husband to one nursing home and then another before ultimately being moved to a hospice in 2000 where she remains.

Where is the record of when this information was entered into testimony at the trial? If it wasn't entered into testimony then why not? This would have been critical information that would certainly swayed the Judge in the parents favor.

Do you have a reputable source for this information or is this just WorldNetDaily hype to sucker the sheeples?

I don't think the slam at WND is warranted, FWIW. They're not Newsmax; they check things out before running with it. I'd put Joe Farah's credibility up against anyone's.

My theory is that:
- the results from therapy were in the very early years (1990-1993).
- Mikey stopped the therapy when he got his money.
- A few years passed, where the Schindlers concentrated on trying to get Mikey to do what he said he would do (they may have been too timid at this stage, who knows?) to get Terri therapy.
- Then Mikey filed to pull the feeding tube (1998, I think).
- By that time, the favorable results from therapy were considered old news and irrelevant by Judge Greer and the trained attack dogs disguised as doctors that Mikey used.
- I believe the opinions of Terri's doctors have never been allowed into the official court record, and even if I'm wrong and they have been, the early favorable results of therapy probably never have ("too old" "irrelevant" "what is she like TODAY?").
