I believe the DCF is referring to that, yes. Hammesfahr was upset that there had been no followup with Dr Yingling in Calif.
It hasn't been removed because Schiavo doesn't want to bother. Hammesfahr said it could cause a bacterial infection that could kill her.
I'd call that abuse for leaving it in; of course that's why HINO wants it to stay in. What a creep.
