If the case is shadowed by a money dispute on both sides, as the judge was quoted as saying-then right action would have been a state appointed guardian, not MS.

True. What I fear, though, is that the media will take the story about the Schindler's being after money and run with it. They were just waiting for the ammo and here it is. It can be twisted to make the Schindler's look like the bad guys. I think Bob Schindler should stick with this line: Even if I'm as bad as they say I am, there's no excuse for not treating Terri.

Not that I think the Schindler's have anything to be ashamed of. Their actions are perfectly understandable and justifiable. It's just how you spin it and the Schindler's don't have a very good spin machine going for them.

Does anyone know what the new GAL is up to lately? Have not heard anything about him after his meeting with Jeb.

I think the media would have a hard time running very far with this character assassination of the Schindlers. It wouldn't be easy for them to reasonably explain how the Schindlers have spent themselves into bankruptcy (including their retirement accounts) just to try to keep MS from killing their daughter over the past 10 years, and have anyone believe it was over a $10,000 dispute about expenses. But, with Felos controlling so much media spin, I could sure be wrong.
