Sean Hannity just said that Michael Schiavo didn't mention her desire to die in such a case for seven years.
[Conclusion: It's a solid claim. FReegards....]
Meanwhile, on FoxNews just now Shepard Smith and his guest (a Dr. Garner?) almost stumbled near the area of the truth, but pulled back at the last minute. Garner said, "She might be retrained to swallow with therapy. But she hasn't had any therapy in years. The family wouldn't allow it, don't know why. . ."
but hey, it was the end of the segment, so no followup on how or why Michael has not allowed that therapy.
