And as to PVS, the interrater reliability for diagnosis is so poor as to be worse than most anything I know. I think the disagreement rate is astounding, something like 40%. To use that diagnosis without looking at the person and taking into account what their family and caregivers say is not wise.
I wonder why anyone would assume MS has her best interests at heart and the truth on his side. He abandoned her years ago. And as for the good care she got from him, he didn't provide it. Medicaid did and what pitiful amount she got from her lawsuit. Most of which has gone to lawyers.
10 have been arrested today in front of Terri's hospice, 3 children.
A 14 year old girl arrested, but sad "You know what? This is what God would've wanted me to do."
The central issue here, really. How anyone can look into this affair with any depth and not smell a big rat is utterly astounding to me. I even had a conversation with a very leftish bartender today (and we never agree on anything sustantive although I'll give her credit for her smarts) and she said she couldn't believe how the State of Florida could let MS basically legally murder Terri. And this is in mid-town Toronto. This case is getting far more attention than I think many people realize. Radio stations today had an interview with a gent from just east of Toronto who has a child with severe cereberal palsy. He was mortified by what was happening.
