LOL.

Well, I'm sure he's thanking his lucky stars that Terri never recovered.

He sure would have had some 'splainin' to do.

"Sorry, honey....I killed your cats and shacked up with a new honey...and it was with your parents' blessings"

Right.

. By 1993, especially after all the testimony in court, I believe it was clear she would never recover.

And besides, he had another warm place to put it by then.

I think the year '97 is when a feeding tube became considered an artificial means of life. Before then it was not.

Even her own doctors recommended he pull the tube.

Oh yes, funny, I remember reading that in a couple of other stories:

Here's where your argument always fails...SHE'S NEVER GOING TO RECOVER.

Well, when you say recover, are you referring to a full recovery or partial use of movements and eyes and mouth?

I wonder if rehab had been proper all this time what she would be like now...
