Um, yes - this is the guardian, Pearse, who recommended not to pull the feeding tube. (he was dismissed because he was morally against pulling all feeding tubes)

He didn't want her tube pulled even though he could never elicit a response from Terri (he must not have figured out the trick of touching her right cheek and neck that makes her smile, no matter who does it.)

If you notice, this man, who sides with Terri's parents, all but rolled his eyes at the outrageous claims of Carla Iyer sitting next to him.

At one point he almost laughed. Then, he proceeded to completely contradict her, and basically say what (I hope) we all know damn well - Carla was one of those nurses Michael ticked off because he was so demanding that her care be above the standard care. She probably got yelled at for slacking off. (though her other claims make me wonder if she isn't just mentally unstable.)

Carla Iyer is the source of the claims that Michael said things like,
"is the bitch gonna die?"
"can't you speed her death"
"I'm gonna be so rich when she dies"

...and the insulin vials left in trashcans,
saying Terri sat at the nurses station and visited with nurses and visitors, interacted every day - was always very aware ...
Michael insisted she have no cloths in her hands, yadda yadda... he was so neglectful (the guardians all said the other nurses said the opposite).

As the judge noted, Carla said she was sneakily calling and telling her family all these things (they apparently forgot to mention it to anyone - including the court - didn't even try to call her as a witness at the major 2000 trial)

She says there was a huge conspiracy going on, and she got fired because she reported it to the police "even tho they say there were other reasons, I know that was it."

And freepers just repeat every outrageous claim of hers - IN BOLD!!! They pretend to see nothing odd at all about hers and trudy's affidavits. They soak it up and spread it around - just like Hammesfahr, who even Glenn Beck ended the interview with because he said he got a feeling the guy was not on the up and up.

It's demeaning. Demeaning to those who close their eyes to obvious lies as long as the lies come from those who side with her parents, and demeaning to this web site that prides itself on vetting the facts.

On any other topic, Carla Iyer and that Dr Hammesfahr would be utterly raked over the coals here for the obnoxious liars they are.
That so many have sold their integrity, thinking that doing so goes unnoticed and not realizing that it throws *everything* said into doubt is truly sad.

I don't know if Terri is PVS or not. My history shows my concerns about this case. But the lies spread here are just a crying shame. I've quit reading most threads because I can't bear to lose respect for people I once thought actually cared about facts more than hysterical rumor-mongering.

And those of us who can't stand the lies, no matter how we feel about the ultimate question, are demonized and accused of wanting Terri to die.

I'm going back to bed.
