“It is likely Terri was complimented by how terrific she looked and this would have encouraged her to continue to deprive her body of food.”

Hey... isn't the author doing a little 'channeling' here? Whoa... this hack should hold out for more money. Ain't often you get a psychic-reporter on the staff!

I guess Anorexia, obesity in childhood killed Terri... at least, that's what they're telling themselves now.

MICHAEL SCHIAVO'S lies and contradictory testimony in easy to read format


"Even a convicted murderer gets their last meal (and a drink of water) on the same day they die."

Interesting that the "loved one" who should have noticed any eating disorder at that stage of Terri's life was her husband, Mikey!

110 lbs? Depending on her body type that may not have been too skinny. Where is the Karen Carpenter type too-skinny photo? This story is a crock and involves the oft-repeated liberal talking points on Terri.

WOW. Making up stories seems to be the norm these days. Everything in there was pure speculation on the part of the author.

“*****It is likely***** Terri was complimented by"

Sounds like she was guessing one and two referring to what was LIKELY said before she entered the hospital.

Where does the channeling come in?

"I guess Anorexia, obesity in childhood killed Terri... at least, that's what they're telling themselves now."

It killed Carpenter. Doctors have offered their opinion that she may have been bulimic. Is that not plausible?

It is true the bloated features in her high school class picture

I wonder if one of these pictures is on the net somewhere. I have a hard time believing this girl ever weighed 250 pounds. I wonder where the writer got that info --- from Michael?

People who are so blatantly ignorant of the facts shouldn't be allowed to write news articles.

Yo, Jennifer - Your article is a thesis built on a steaming pile of crap. First, her HUSBAND, with whom she was living at the time of her "collapse", was her "close relative" that should have noticed any signs of an eating disorder. Second, you need to demonstrate that it is feasible, plausible, and probable that she was anorexic before blaming her "collapse" on that disorder. Third, you don't even catch a whiff of the irony in your assertion that Terri was starved to death because she was anorexic.

Pathetic.

From the article: It is true the bloated features in her high school class picture had been transformed;

Ms. Hunter is offending people right and left, big and small, old and young as she attempts to spin.

Bottom line: Terri's parents did not kill her.

If you want to really see these idiots squirm just throw any AIDS victim at them and tell them they deserve to die from the decisions that they made prior.
The left can try and blame this on Terri all they want, but use their same argument against them with their sacred cow AIDS and watch them get all twitchy.

Oh boy the "Wppptfvbn"- wild turkey opus freepers are not going to like this "wild eyed" speculation and rumor mongering. I expect to see them en force in a few posts demanding this thread be removed. (sarcasm)

There is no proof that Terri had an eating disorder. Why do we not see any photos of a heavy Terri anywhere?

You can bet your patute Michael would have gotten them out in public if he could have.

While we are discussing the Schiavo case, yet again. We need to talk about the scumbag, Randall Terry, who ghoulishly exploited the Schindlers to further his own agenda. Randall Terry has a long criminal record in connection with his violent groups, even spending 5 months in Federal prison.

We should also talk about the way that miserable piece of fecal matter, Louis Sheldon (of the TVC) exploited the Schiavo case to further his own fund-raising. Sheldon appears to be running the TVC for the purpos of enriching Louis Sheldon and family, not for a purpose of promoting stronger families.

If Terri was bulimic, I find it odd that Michael had no idea. My husband's ex-wife was bulimic. He was only 25 when he figured it out and made her go for treatment.

>> Terri suffered from an eating disorder that led to dangerously low potassium levels that led to cardiac arrest.

How about that, a new disease! What should we call it? How about, "Not-Strangulation Eating Disorder Collapse in the Middle of the Night Cutting off Oxygen to the Brain and Breaking Most of your Bones Because You Spent $80 on a Haircut and your Husband Was Furious Syndrome."

I'm going to start a foundation to help investigate the causes of this dreadful new syndrome that cuts down so many healthy young women in their sleep.

Her husband said under oath that she did not suffer from a eating disorder, early in the trial.

Having lived with a bulemic (my sister), I don't understand how anyone living with her could not know. We KNEW something was wrong, but in the late 1970's, no one could give us a name for it. Anorexia is much easier to hide, IMHO.

All the binge foods and sticky toilet seats. Long trips to the bathroom. My sister was 5'6" and down to 85 lbs and could still point out how fat her forearms were.

The irony was, I was the fat sister. From age 7 to 16 I was taken from one doc to the next and put on all kinds of meds to make me lose weight (none worked). Once I understood what my sister was doing, I even tried..but couldn't develope bulemia (by the Grace of God). It's always been curious to me that in a time period where society was aware of eating disorders, no one close to her caught on. Yet I also read that when Terri fell in her kitchen, Michael didn't attempt CPR, which even the untrained will attempt in an emergency.
