You've got to be kidding me. After three failed attempts, had they forced another swallow test and her body aspirated the liquid, they'd face a possible malpractice suit.
Have you seen the official results of her swallowing tests? If you have, I'd like a link if you have it.
I think his point is that without any nutrition or hydration as ordered by Judge Greer, at this point, without eating her probability of death is 100%.
I really do not understand the inability for everyone to understand this basic point:
If we do not provide her with any source of nutrition, she WILL absolutely die, vs. if we take out her feeding tube (in accordance with the state law) and allow her to try and survive by feeding her orally, she will in all likelihood die.
If you were playing Russian roulette, would you rather play with a revolver with no empty chambers or with one empty chamber and take your chances?
And I don't understand your inabiliity to put away the hysterical emoting and come to the realization that what made Terri, "Terri" died 15 years ago and y'all are desperatedly trying to preserve the shell through artificial means even though it serves NO benefit to the "patient". Why can't you people just release her body? Terri's been gone for 15 years and this "weekend at Terri's" garbage is sickening and pathetic.
