Don't you ever watch the movies? In order to make ANY scam work you ALWAYS need the corrupt judge.
None of those pictures are those of a woman in a coma or a PVS. Anyone who tells you you don't understand what a PVS is you tell 'em they've moved the goal posts and redefined PVS for their own purposes. A PVS just frickin' lays there. It's like a coma with no chance of recovery. Frankly, I tend not to believe a dr. who says "no chance of recovery" anyway, they're probably just trying to clear the bed. My mother had no chance of recovery four or five times before the real thing. They kept telling her she had to sign a DNR. She kept telling them to go screw themselves. Then they would retaliate. It was a big f'n mess.
I believe you're right about that. Judge Greer made a legal decision that Dr. Hammesfahr wasn't credible, which then got posted on quackwatch.com and maybe a few other places. Some Felos-friendly doctors in Florida filed complaints against Dr. Hammesfahr. The complaints were thoroughly investigated by the Florida Dept of Health, as well as by Medicare, and found to be completely without merit.
Rush has been simply SUPERB on this issue the last three days!!!!
"Michael Schiavo's only argument is - hearsay"
Exactly - and other people have said that Michael also said, "I don't know want she wanted".
Then .. he was awarded $2.5 million - AND SUDDENLY HE REMEMBERED WHAT HIS WIFE WANTED.
He then went on to say that what she said on tv was exactly what her affidavit stated. That is not correct. She appears to have embellished her insulin charges since signing the affidavit.
Affidavit of Carla Iyer, nurse who cared for Terri Schiavo from April 1995 to July 1996
excerpt
It is medically possible that Michael injected Terri with Regular insulin, which is very fast acting, but I don't have
-6-
any way of knowing for sure.
~snip~
Nothing about all the injection spots she claimed on tv today to have seen. In addition, why did it only seemingly occur on her shift and didn't evidently happen after she was discharged for the unstated other reasons she was given.
Isn't there a story in the Bible (forgive me if there isn't,I am a Christian but sorta Bible ignorant) about two women fighting over a child---each claiming they are the mother---
The "king" or whoever said that the only way to solve it would be to cut the baby in half- half for each---when one woman yelled out NO and said not to do that, that she would rather let the other woman have the baby, than to kill the baby, the "king" said that he KNEW that she was the true mother because only the TRUE mother would give up the baby rather than see it harmed...
If I am misremembering, forgive me, but whenever I try to find a reason that MS would not just give up and let Terri live with her parents, I have this "story" run through my brain--
There is just way too much evidence that MS does NOT love Terri---our President should take the part of the "king" and just do what it takes!!!
Having personal experience with LOTS of neurologists this DOESN'T discredit him AT ALL!! I don't have a lot of respect for many people in the "medical community." Which is apparently what people are using to say this doctor is discredited.
Yes. King Solomon.
The criticism against him is completely unfounded and for the purpose of discrediting a doctor who thinks Terri should LIVE!!!!
The pictures and evidence have been around a long time. That is one thing that makes me so upset over this case. I don't understand how this evidence was overlooked. There is even a nurse who testified that Michael tried to kill her with an Insulin shot-Rush just played the quote from the nurse.
King Solomon and you are correct in relaying the story.
:)
Caller to Rush happy because assumes this is the end of Republican Majority. Rush tells him to be honest and just admit Death makes them happy. They cheer our troops death assuming this will hurt Reps, they cheer terri's death hoping it'll hurt Reps. Amen.
It does not come from a outside source.
No, it won't. It will be just the BEGINNING!!!!
Isn't that first pic Terri and Micheal??
I wondered this myself. But apparently there is a difference. You can read about it in the Wolfson Guardian Ad Litem report here: http://www.nationalreview.com/pdf/SchiavoFinalReport.pdf
2005 - Terri Schiavo, age 41, Pinellas Park FL
1969 - Mary Jo Kopechne, age 29, Chappaquiddick MA
Oh, do you know for a fact she CAN'T swallow on her own? THere are several nurses who say she can-and they have seen her and cared for her.
I do agree that there are other issues here, but the fact that Michael is putting forth the idea that she is in a "vegetable state" and she isn't-seems pretty important to me!
