Terri's husband isn't the enemy, guardian says
Orlando Sentinel ^ | February 25, 2005 | Mike Thomas

Posted on 03/19/2005 9:18:52 AM PST by EveningStar

Wolfson's report is based on court files, depositions, medical records and interviews with everyone involved.

That said, I begin with the most explosive allegation:

Did Michael try to kill Terri?

Wolfson laughs. "No!"

-----

Wolfson's report states that in the four years after her collapse, Michael "had insistently held to the premise that Theresa could recover and the evidence is incontrovertible that he gave his heart and soul to her treatment and care . . . In late autumn of 1990, following months of therapy and testing and formal diagnoses of persistent vegetative state with no evidence of improvement, Michael took Theresa to California, where she received an experimental thalamic stimulator implant in her brain. Michael remained in California caring for Theresa during a period of several months."

Says Wolfson now: "Michael was adoring of her. One nursing home complained he was hostile and abusive of the staff in championing her care. She was immaculately kept. In 13 years, she never had one bedsore."

And besides, I thought Hildy said Terri Schaivo died 15 years ago. It's odd that there was no funeral, no burial, and that they have kept the corpse in hospital and hospice beds all these years It's even stranger that they are still trying to kill her even though she has been dead for 15 years.

Terri died 15 years ago. Her body however still lives on, like a tissue sample kept living in a petri dish.

The doctor sued in the lawsuit you are speaking of, was CLEARED OF ALL CHARGES later.
****

Can you show me this?

****

THE REASON OUR TAXES are paying for it and MICHAEL gets to use the money that was there to pay for her care on other things like FELOS (this is also a fact, I have documented proof available), is because of FELOS and MICHAEL. They transferred her to the HOSPICE , against the legal procedures of notification specified by the court, and got the court to rule that she was PVS so they could have MEDICAID foot the bills.

FELOS is good at scamming MEDICARE, they are after his butt for doing so. (I have documented proof of this as well.)

****

I would like to see this proof also. Just curious...
TIA

Are you saying that you know she was that selfish? Or are you that selfish?

All he has to do to prove he is not selfish is let her Parents have guardianship, get a divorce, and he's free and clear. But, he won't.

Well, I am impressed. That is the most straightforward, contextually correct post from you I have seen in three days.

And your last paragraph I fully agree with. Thank you.

Yes, he does go and visit AND he takes the girlfriend with him and they talk in front of Terri. Read some of the nurses affidavits about Terri's reactions after they leave. Of course, she has no idea what they are talking about so those reactions must have been like her smiling at her mother, trying to talk, etc. just muscle contractions, etc.

The charges in this post are baseless, should be tossed out. Just because you posted them as "documentary evidence" without relevant links, is nothing more than a baseless vanity post.

"she never wanted to be kept alive with machines and tubes. Yet court testimony indicates her best friend, Joan, also heard Terri say that.
Do you have a link?"

The actual testimony isn't here but in the summation there is a reference to an "expert witness" who says the comments of her friends is consistent with kids Terri's age. Apparrently there were several who testified she didn't want to be hooked to a machine, burden on society etc. from what I read.

http://abstractappeal.com/schiavo/trialctorder02-00.pdf

The actual trial was May 1998… Michael files petition for court to determine whether Terri's feeding tube should be removed; Michael takes position that Terri would chose to remove the tube; Terri's parents take position that Terri would chose not to remove the tube.

Pehaps you can find the transcripts?

Terri has had more SCANS than merchandise at Wal-Mart stores!

Please provide proof Terri has had an fMRI which is the currently accepted best method for determining the state Terri is supposedly in.

Explain how, please.-Howlin

I'll try. You seem to be getting a little slippery though.

It's astounding that he's talking about this and isn't better informed.

Yet, your 'information' consists of "hazy remembrances, I think, I am not sure, Terri's friend (when it was Michael's sister in law)", and you have never once provided any documentation to support any of your statements.

I know that Terri has had numerous CAT scans.

How many, and when? (more of your "hazy memories?)

MRI and PET are not necessary for Terri because PVS is primarily a “clinical” diagnosis, that is, one arrived at on the basis of examination of the patient, rather than by relying on tests.

They aren't going to ascertain anything from an MRI scan, short of seeing how much of her brain has wasted away.

"Yes, he was a "loving, adoring husband" until he got his hands on Terri's malpractice award. Then, he remembered she wanted him to make sure she died."

Your statement doesn't even come close to reality.

Do you know what he did for her pertaining to her care? Did you know he had become beligerent when he felt her care wasn't adequate? Do you know he flew her to CA for special treatments and efforts to reverse her condition?
Do you know her parents went after money not given to care for her, but HIS MONEY!
Do you realize how long he waited and what caused his decision to remove the tube initially?

Obviously from your remarks you have not a clue one.

I hate to break the news to you but Night of the Living Dead is a MOVIE.

Cordially,

This is the catscan of Terri's brain. The black parts are liquified. All that section of the brain is permanently gone. The rest... I am not an expert and do not know.

White spots are not something you want to see in your brain.
