You seem to have hit the old nail on the head as usual. LOL
Yep. That's not the procedure. Fraud.
(It's an ad hominem but it casts serious doubt on anything he says.)
The recommendations of this medical expert were ignored. He also found indications of a severe cervical injury. As far as I know, no one ordered CT scans of Terri's cervical spine. MS refused to permit her to be further evaluated. No speech therapy was ever allowed.
I agree with others who say Terri is being murdered by a corrupt court system in Florida. Jeb Bush is also a huge disappointment. The whole state is floating in corruption as far as I can tell.
As an aside, I Googled these terms "Mexico + corruption" and a few others today. Me thinks it is no accident that the two major access points for drug coming into the U.S. in 1997 were Texas (via Juarez) and Florida. But what do I know anyway? I'm just an old geezer living in Oregon.
When?
What was the question & answer?
What is your explanation as to why they have been saying otherwise for years now?
Right on both counts.
<< Her parents admitted, on the witness stand, that she is PVS. >>
Care to post the transcript of that proceeding and of those [Layman's and therefore -- even if they existed outside of your fantasies -- in-any-case meaningless] "admissions."
As far as the Nobel Prize recommendation, this does not reflect on the Dr. but it does reflect on the Congressman. Physicians are seldom accused of humility--this doubly so when they have prominence and a long c.v.
Wow .. spent a whole 10 minutes examining her huh?
The loon is Felos he says he channels comatose patients.Hitch yourself to that wagon if you want.
Yes!!!
...The degree of limitation of range of motion, and of spasms in her neck, is consistent with a neck injury....
I think hubby tried to kill her.
He's given confiliciting testimony about how he "found" her:

Excerpts of Michael Schiavo's July 27, 1992 Deposition
CIRCUIT COURT OF THE SIXTH JUDICIAL CIRCUIT
STATE OF FLORIDA IN AND FOR PINELLAS COUNTY
PROBATE DIVISION
CASE NO. 90-2908-GD3 January 24, 2000
BEFORE: GEORGE W. GREER Circuit Court Judge
PLACE: Clearwater Courthouse
Clearwater, FL 33756
Q Michael, tell me what occurred on
11 February 25, 1990.
12 A I got home late from work that night. I
13 came in the house. Terri woke up. She heard me.
14 I gave her a kiss good night. She gave me a kiss
15 good night. A few hours later, I was getting out
16 of bed for some reason and I heard this thud. So
17 I ran out into the hall and I found Terri on the
18 floor. I knelt down next to her and I turned her
19 over because she sort of fell on her face. On her
20 stomach and face.
21 I turned her over going, "Terri, Terri.
"severely low episodes of blood pressure due to a lack of treatment of urinary tract infections ordered by the husband"
Pardon me, if I sound stupid, but is this report saying the husband did not allow her to be treated for urinary tract infections? I'm just wondering if I'm reading it right.
Now, just get back to HINO side of the cesspool and keep the other buzzards company.
Have you all seen this incredible tape of Terri opening her eyes for the dr. - he keeps saying "open you eyes{ - so she finally arches her eyebrows high and her eyes wide as if to say: "Hey, how about THIS!"
It will make you laugh and then cry - SHE IS THERE - she needs therapy...THIS IS A MUST - must get it our everyone. I've sent it to all the FOX addresses, Rush, Hannity ets - but they have to get slammed with this to pay attention, so it doesn't get lost.

Guys, you've been had. Then again, so have lots of others.
This exam took place during a time that the doc was promoting himself as a wunderdoc for all sorts of brain injury, expectially stroks. He was ultimately dinged by the State of Florida for his bogus claims.
http://www.doh.state.fl.us/mqa/FinalOrders/03-17-03/DOH-03-0182.pdf
So here we have a bogus Nobel nomination, and a conviction by the State of Florida for bogus ads, claiming about the same time that Terri would respond to care.
If you're gonna make an argument then you've GOT to be careful about your sources. The Left wears pajamas, too.
Whatever the story about the Nobel Prize, this whole report sounds sensible and reasonable to me. If he has an ego trip about the nomination, big deal. A little pompousness doesn't discredit him.
She has been examined, usually for a short time only, by serveral Death Doctors, and it's understandable that she does not respond to them. As you can see from this report, she responds to pleasurable sounds and voices she knows and loves. But she does not respond that way to those who clearly wish her ill.
She did not respond to Dr. Hammesfahr at first because she has had mostly unpleasant experiences with doctors. But once she understood he was trying to help her, she did respond.
It's no wonder if she takes some time to respond and has muscles that have seized up. Anyone would, after being kept lying in the dark for 15 years, deprived of human contacts and any kind of stimulation. Michael has ordered her blinds down, her lights off, and has ordered that the nurses should not speak to her.
And what the hell kind of doctor would not be concerned about bacterial infection of the bladder?
Uh huh.
"Terri, blink your eyes."
No response.
"Terri, squeeze my hand?"
No response.
"Terri, look at your mother?"
No response... wait! She's blinking rapidly! That counts as a hit on the first question! Clearly she can understand what I was asking and it's not just a random event!
Uh huh. This guy must be taking lessons from John Edward.
This kind of BS pseudoscience only hurts the case for keeping her alive.
"Terri Schiavo is not in a "persistent vegetative state," she will respond to therapy. They are murdering this woman!"
If this is a legitamate exam, then this finding is not consistent with someone that is functioning only on "brain stem." I am starting to wonder if the "Cat Scan" image being shown at various places (like the MSM) is bogus or doctored(no pun intended). Something is horribly wrong here.
Baring an absolutely miraculous regeneration of her brain damage, Terri could never be the person she was. However, it is obvious to me that if she had of received more agressive therapy early on she would today not be considered PVS just severely handicapped. This is so very sad.
I say this as a PT, who's seen many in conditions much worse than she.
