Terry was represented by her own attorey. She had a guardian ad litem appointed.

Regarding the $$, according to court papers, Michael formally offered to divest himself entirely of his financial interests in the guardianship estate.

Why didn't Terri's parent take him up on that offer?

And if he's in it for the $$, why hasn't he accepted the two offers he's had? One for $10M and one for $1M?

As I said, it seems from reading the case history of this that Michael tried everything possible for Terri. Experimental therapy even. Changing his profession to become a respiratory therapist.

When the malpractice case was heard in court, you can imagine the number of professional doctors who were called as witnesses for both sides. It was when he heard that she was PVS with no hope, that I think he decided it was time to carry out her wishes.

You may twist that any way you wish. But after reading the court transcripts and the GAL report, I think you would change your mind about some of your charges.

re: She had a guardian ad litem appointed. )))

Greer is the guardian ad litem. It is the duty of a GAL to acquaint himself with all details of the case. He has never been to see Terri.

"When the malpractice case was heard in court, you can imagine the number of professional doctors who were called as witnesses for both sides. It was when he heard that she was PVS with no hope, that I think he decided it was time to carry out her wishes. "
That is the stupidest argument I have seen today. Forgetting the sleaze of MS, he is a nurse -how good I don't know - Ivy League trained nurses tend not to end up in prisons. But as a nurse he should not have suddenly found out about her condition during the trial.
As a nurse he should have been extremely familiar with her condition from day one. (even if brain injury was not his field of expertise , he should know where to look it up).
Unless he was already being a Lothario.
