I don't know what the problem is. I think Terri Schiavo does just fine, despite no therapy in over 12 years. Why do we have to execute her?

Thanks for posting that link. I hadn't seen that video. It's just more proof that this poor woman is not a "vegetable".

When will they get that creepy husband to let someone else be her guardian?

I never knew a vegetable that had a memory, have you?

Very nice! The article would be even better if it didn't even suggest that Terri was brain-dead. I wish people would learn what brain-dead means. Otherwise it's an interesting article. I like the video of Terri, too.

Sadly, the way things stand right now, she only has 12 days until they pull her feeding tube.

Keep praying.

No, I sure haven't. I've also never seen one try to talk to it's father.

[Ohioan from Florida]

True! More proof that Terri is really in there! She recalls what her father is reminding her of from her past.

It just shows the misconceptions of otherwise people well meaning people. They have got to get the right info. to do what is right.

Not has long if she may able to talk.

I pray for Terri. Will she be cruelly murdered by the Liberals 12 days hence?

I said this on another thread, but I'm going to repeat it now. When I first heard about Terri, I thought that her parents were wrong and they should let her go. I believed it when I heard that she was a PVS. But when I saw the videos, I knew that she had awareness. Anyone that sees those videos and still insists that she's a "vegetable", is either blind or a liar.

That's what Michael's lawyer is saying. There hasn't been anything form the court saying that (YET!) (Unless, of course, that Greer has already forecast his decision tomorrow to Felos ahead of time.)(But that wouldn't be ethical for a judge to do that.)(Naw, Greer would never do anything like that, would he?)(Well, there was that time when he talked to Sheriff Rice about the case, but we'll put that one aside.)

There are tests to determine brain waves. Have they done any on Terri? Of course not because her brain is still very active.

Thanks for the video in your post.

She does seem to understand her father and laughs when he kids her. No wonder Michael S. is so scared of getting her therapy. She would be able to tell everyone of his continual abuse.

Judge Greer is guilty of fostering this abuse. How he can sleep at night is beyond me.

Terri Video Bump!

That is what they want alright. I had to post this for my conscience. I hate to post anything!
