"Sounds like about a dozen people on this thread."

Sounds like MOST people on all the Terri threads, on both sides of the issue. I for one would like to see CAT/MRI scan to see if there really is any brain function.

I'm curious--do you have any background with reading CT scans? I've seen the CT scan of Terri's brain, and while I can tell there's a big blank spot in the middle, I would never presume that I have the background or knowledge to say what that means.

It bothers me a great deal that Americans on both sides of the issue feel they can make independent judgments on Terri's state. Whether they judge based on a heavily-redacted videotape put out by Terri's Mom, or based on what Michael Schiavo says, it doesn't matter. The Good Lord made doctors for a reason and there is a tremendous amount of material out there, much of it sworn testimony, that is better than anything I can come up with.

I would hate to have any of our armchair neurosurgeons here diagnosing me in case I had an illness.
