"Whoa. Hold on. I thought she was brain dead."

Nope. Just her husband and the courts.

I thought she was brain dead.

A casual observation of video clips of her condition makes it obvious she is aware of her surroundings and reacting to them. But she has a severely limited ability to move, she is unable to speak, and currently unable to eat -- although many therapists seem to believe she could make progress on all these areas if her husband would allow such treatment.

This is certainly not what I would call brain dead.

Why do you think MS, Felos, & Greer don't want anyone to see her?

I just heard the CNN medical hack,Gupta or whatever trying to convince the public that it is not really painful to die of starvation and dehydration He said that with brain injuries it's not really clear how much they can feel pain,if at all, but in a worse case scenario when they remove the feeding tube they'll just start giving her painkillers instead through another tube.
Imagine the disconnect of this guy...

Shhhh! We're not supposed to know. Michael et al work hard to portray her that way and work equally hard to make sure no one portrays her any differently, ie as she is.

Good grief, you people will believe anything. Even if she did say this, why on Earth would you assume she was doing anything more than mimicking what was spoken to her? To those of you who don't believe that Terri wants/wanted to die, ask yourselves how many of you would want to be sustained in such a state? Is it really so unbelievable that in the course of their marriage, the issue of life support never came up?

Of all the weird stuff coming down today, including jacko, scott peterson, robert blake, and on and on and on and on, this Schiavo story is the most chilling. Glenn Beck is the only one out there telling the real story. I've been flabbergasted at watching the media ignore important stories in the past, but this one takes the cake. That *sshole shamed & starved her into her mental state through diet, lack of food and minerals, promised to take care of her while pursuing the insurance money, and then cast her aside to die. Anyone would think the dominant media would be on this like a duck on a junebug, but I guess the death culture trumps a woman being taken advantage of.

I had a bunch of people over for dinner a few nights ago and Terri's name came up. These were people that I really thought paid attention to the news but they were absolutely shocked when I explained to them her current state! We're talkin D.C. people who influence public policy for the rest of us. It was just sickening to really witness that we have let leftist propaganda truly shape public opinion and public policy.

In the end, apathy will be our downfall.

It might not have been Terri but Barbara Weller. It doesn’t mention any neutral observers.

No, but the people who want her to die are.
