Because it's not insurance money. It's medical trust fund money. The money that Michael won on behalf of Terri was specifically for the purpose of taking care of Terri. Has he done this? Nope. He's used it on himself, lawyer fees, etc. Check out http://terrisfight.org, http://blogsforterri.com. All the information is there.

There's no insurance money. I've heard it repeated, over and over, by both Michael Schiavo and the Schindlers.

I think that Mr. Schiavo turned down an offer of a substantial sum of money a few days ago. It doesn't seem as if money is the motivating factor here.

One of the things that bothers me about all this is the choice to withhold nutrition to induce death, which I should think would be a rather lengthy process. If folks are willing to accept responsibility for inducing her death, why would they not accept a manner of death (e.g., an overdose of opiates) that might be somewhat quicker? Have they convinced themselves that by withholding nutrition they are not playing an active role in her death? Isn't that a bit delusional?
