>I'm all for keeping her alive from a Christian perspective. But who is responsible for her hospital bills?

Surely it must be costing someone an incredible amount of money to keep her alive.<

As I understand it, Medicaid is now paying for her. However, there was a huge award given Michael Shiavo for the express purpose of caring for his wife.

He spent much of the money on Lawyer Felos, and on litigation with the goal of removing his wife's feeding tube.

Terri is now dependent on the state, due to the frivolous actions of Michael S. and George Felos.

I'm wondering if the company who paid MS off on the contingency of caring for his wife can counter sue for the money, since he's done nothing of the sort as to what he testified to?

But her parents would take her at zero cost to taxpayers.

So, if Medicaid is paying for her care, wouldn't the citizens of the State of Florida, who are indirectly paying for her care, have any standing in this case?
