I did read the report. I know about the other doctors. I am talking about the doctor everyone is interviewing as the 'doctor'. I don't know how you can consider a doctor who spent several hours with Terri, has been nominated for Nobel prize in medicine for his work with brain-damaged patients as an easily impeachable source. I don't know about the numerous other doctors that don't believe she is PVS. I was also simply remarking on someone's implication that spending only 90 minutes with a patient means nothing when this doctor spent only 45 minutes and the judge trusted his judgement. That was it. That was all I was talking about.
They are interviewing him, but we were pointing out that he wasn't "the doctor Greer relied on" - it is an important distinction.
Hammesfahr is lying about his status as a Nobel Prize Nominee and has been asked to stop saying he is. He complained about the cost if changing his letterheads.
Hammesfahr was seriously impeached at trial by both his "report" on Terri, and by trying to say he had a confirmation letter and oops just forgot* to bring it (the court asked him to). Turned out to be a note from the secretary saying they sent a letter. And his congressman wasn't even on the panel of people who can nominate. Look at my posts from last night and a link to a thread that has more links.
(*like he forgot/couldn't locate the records of all those patients he said he had who were like Terri.)
The guy is a used car salesman of doctors. He ads in National enquirer. His patent is merely giving common vasodilators to people who need more blood flow to the brain - it works great on some things, but he pushes it as a miracle cure for other things based on nothing.
Even Glenn Beck, a major Terri supporter cut short his interview with hammesfahr, apologizing to the listeners because he couldn't get straight answers from the guy and said he didn't trust him.
As soon as I come out of this fog, I'll reseach and organize everything and put it on my page. right now, i'm going back to bed.
