Clearwater, Florida-AP -- Florida authorities are investigating a mystery surrounding a severely brain-damaged woman who's been at the center of a right-to-die case.

There's word that Terri Schiavo (SHY'-voh) was taken to the hospital from a nursing home -- after nursing home workers noticed punctures on her arms that apparently were caused by a hypodermic needle.

Hospital officials are conducting blood tests. A lawyer for the woman's husband says a needle cap was found in Schiavo's gown. He says a nursing home worker discovered the marks yesterday after a 45-minute visit from the woman's parents.

Her father told a Tampa T-V station (W-T-S-P) that nothing seemed out of the ordinary when he left yesterday. He says he didn't put a needle into his daughter's arms.

She's been in a vegetative state for years. Her husband wants to take her off life support, but her parents want to keep her alive.

I would not put it past creepy Mike Shiavo to set his former in laws up. Get their visits cut off so they cannot monitor her condition. These people have fought so hard for their daughter's life, why on earth would they do something like that?
This man is dangerous. He's pissed off that he can't play God with Teri's life.

You so don't know what is going on. She's not on life support!
