If this woman had a loving husband like Michael she would have been dead years ago after he pulled the plug.We all know that he just loves her to death,literally.I hope Terry wakes up one night real soon and instead of calling her husband she calls the police to report an attempted murder.

Can you imagine being transported from 1986 to today?
1) Michael Jackson is on trial? Didn't he used to be black?
2) How many times has George Bush been elected President? What happened to Dan Quayle?
3) Yeah, right, two planes hit the WTC and knocked them down. SURE they did.
4) Who is Bill Clinton?
5) I can't wait to watch Johnny Carson!
6) What is a "blue" state? What is a "red" state?
7) OJ Simpson did WHAT?
8) What is this "internet" people keep talking about?
etc. etc. etc.

27 years ago I did a six week rotation through surgical ICU in a Ft. Worth hospital. I took care of a 17 y.o. girl who was in a complete coma the entire time. I spoke to her daily, praised her and encouraged her... although she never responded. I rotated off of the service, hoping she would recover. I didn't see her again, until about 8 months later, at the end of a long day, I was walking back to my room to take a shower. She appeared from behind a column to surprise me. She took me, kissed me, and told me how much I had meant to her. I was stunned... she left me there, both of us crying.
True story... body + spirit = soul. Always be aware that our spirits are what truly communicates... even in the Alzheimer's patients.

Think of it! When she had her accident there was U2, and Blondie, and music still on MTV. There was Springsteen, Madonna, way before Nirvana...
Seriously, all prayers to her for a speedy and successful recovery.

I wouldn't know yet about her, but Kate Adamson recovered and wrote a book about her own experience, Kate's Journey: Triumph Over Adversity. Among other things, she describes the horror of having her feeding tube removed for eight days.

Let's see...uh...'84...'85...She's in for quite a shock. This is a GREAT opportunity for historians - actually to interview someone who thinks they are still living in the '80s, the Reagan years. Wow. Time Travel. "Back to the Future."

What a beautiful story of hope.
Thanks for sharing it.

My thoughts exactly. Not quite like she missed vintage years.
To: krinkrayyado
That's a great story,,,it's amazing that she could detect and remember your caring for her. Sometimes I think because others can't communicate, that means they don't understand. What a fool I am, it's I who doesn't understand. To be trapped inside your body and mind like that,,,I cannot even imagine the frustration...
God bless you for your caring for this girl.
To: hispanarepublicana
Ah, to have slept thru the entire Clinton Administration Aberration ....Yes, there is a silver lining in even the worst of situations...

And what a treat for the next high school reunion.
They should break her in slowly with...uh..let's say Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade before getting to the Clinton years.

Terry Schiavo deserves a chance at life. I cannot understand how another human being could be so cold as to deny her parents what little joy they want in caring for their daughter. What would it cost him to give up his quest to see Terry deprived of life? Some insurance money? What is motivating this misguided man -- aside from stubborn principle?

If I recall, her parents have told him he can have all the money. They just want Terri. I think he's terrified that she will recover enough to tell what happened to her at his hands. This case of Sara must have him and Greer and Felos in a tizzy. She even has recovered her memory!
