Its all kind of come to a head hasn't it.

A host also HAS witnessed these things.
Your link extremely interesting.....
Each morning I would wake up at 5am to get ready for swimming practice before school. At the time I admired Mark Spitz and wanted to be the 1980 olympics.
I did the butterfly stroke and anyone that is familiar with swimming knows that you start off the starting blocks and shallow dive in the pool. The starting blocks are on the shallow end of the pool where the water is only 3ft deep.
On 14 November 1978, I was practicing and as I dove off the starting blocks my foot slipped and I went in headfirst in 3ft of water. I felt something wrong, my head hurt, there was a lot of blood and could not move. I didn't remember much at this time but I was taken out of the pool on a backboard by my team mates.
My next memories were being at the nearby hospital and feeling cold. I was naked on a stretcher and remember wanting to be covered. I could hear people and see people but I could not speak or move.
I remember a doctor saying "Really? Is he still alive?!" and someone else saying that there was nothing they could do for me that I was supposed to be dead.
I had broken my C1, C2, C3 and a bone called my odontoid.
The pain was terrible and apparently I could not stay conscious for long. I think they used a term "in and out" later to describe my condition. Saying that my body is shutting off and I won't live.
The next memories I had was of wind and for a moment or so I thought I was going to heaven. I was in fact being transported on Houston's LifeFlight helicopter to Hermann Hospital.
It was there that I remember hearing my mother and father's voices and hearing my father cry after being told that I was alive but would not make it. I was hurt so bad and was trying to move or say something and I just couldn't.
My mother had begged to see me and asked the doctor if I could hear them. He said "no". I remember him telling them that honestly I had no chance for survival through the day. He explained that the extent of my injuries were just too severe and that it was a miracle that I was even alive at the moment.
I remember my mother asking the doctor if I was in pain. He answered her and both my father and mother broke down sobbing in tears. They didn't want my passing to be painful.
I tried everything. I tried to move and couldn't. I tried to speak and couldn't. I remember at one point noticing the heart monitor and trying to see if I could somehow control my heart rate so that someone would notice me. I wanted to fight. I wanted to live and I felt completely helpless. I felt that people were giving up on me.
Even as I type this, the memories bring back such a deep sadness and loneliness that I simply have no words to describe. I didn't want to be left alone and people were talking as if I was not there anymore as if I was already dead. I had to fight back.
The days, weeks and months afterwards are much of a blur, morphine does that to you I suppose. It took two weeks for me to communicate and when I did I was so drugged that people wondered whether I was brain damaged. I vividly remember hearing a doctor explain that no one should have much hope that I would be like a vegtable and paralyzed from the neck down at best. I lost all track of time.
It would be almost a year before I could walk around. Everyone smiled. It was all a miracle, there was no other explanation.
To this day I have two scars on my temples where I had a halo brace and I can't turn my head all the way to my shoulder, but Im alive and well and Im grateful that no one gave up on me.
Like most of you, I don't know Terri Schiavo, but there is a small part of me that can empathize with her. I know how it feels to be alone and I know all too well that dark sad place where she is now. She is alive and she is fighting. The simple fact that she is alive is all the evidence one needs to understand that Terri has not given up. Please don't give up on Terri.
What Terri needs is people who love her, care for her and those who won't give up up her. Terri may never come back from that place where she is at now, but she needs to be given the chance.
Are Schindlers also going to get some air time???
It was? Hmmm, I must have missed that. But I know when I have had people in the hospital I personally checked for those things. As I know many people also do. Didn't his family look for bedsores? I find that strange, but I guess it is possible.
God is going to strike Judge Greer dead and the whole country will be in shock.
I thought he said Widen. But who is that?
I know, but it doesn't seem to have any traction. It's like beating a dead horse at this point.
Exactly.
"Must have been a seizure. /sarcasm"
Yes, or some kind of automatic reflex. /shared sarcasm :)
He is her husband's lawyer. Her husband claims that she told him that she wanted to die. Of course with Terri unable to say anything he could make up anything he wanted. Until they whip a recording or a document with her signature out of their butts they have no business saying anything about her intentions.
Ha!! Threatening Hilary again!
Thanks pnz1,
He is saying that Terry wants to die. What is the proof?
Felos is a jackass of the first caliber...whining about politics for God's sake.
I never thought I would be grateful to the Dems.
THE MAN SPEAKING ON FOX, IS FELOS, THE LAWYER FOR THE HUSBAND.
FELOS IS A LIAR.. TERRI STARTED CRYING..
SHE DOES NOT WANT TO DIE..
FELOS IS A LIAR~!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
