Schiavo's 'Dr. Humane Death' Got 1980 Diagnosis Wrong By Jeff Johnson CNSNews.com Senior Staff Writer April 12, 2005

(CNSNews.com) -- A neurologist hired by Michael Schiavo to confirm that his wife Terri was in a persistent vegetative state said he was "105 percent sure" of that diagnosis, but Dr. Ronald Cranford expressed similar certainty about a patient he examined in 1980 who later regained both consciousness and the ability to communicate.

Three days before Terri Schiavo's death, Cranford appeared on the MSNBC talk program, "Scarborough Country," to discuss her condition. Cranford was interviewed by reporter Lisa Daniels.

Bumping such a hard-to-turn-away-from post of sadness and fact and horrendous treatment.

SOMEBODY will expose the FILTH and multitude of monstrous, macabre, machinations of this sickeningly GROSS HUMAN INJUSTICE.

FILTHY FILTH.

The truth WILL out, for ALL to see. It always does....

You misunderstand...the article was not written by me.

The author, Lawrence Henry has had two kidney transplants.

You may have noticed that I sometimes like to be in a funk of a run-on sentences *mood*. I must like to shoot for a record or something. ;-)

You always make such sensible sense, Ohioan. :-)

LOL! Well, there's plenty of people who would tend to disagree with your assessment of me! ;-)

Not true. He finally accepted the doctors contention that there was no hope after her brain had degenerated to the point of no return. Then the money had to go to fighting off the Schindlers.

There are so many hypothesises about the money connections between MS, Greer, lawyers, doctors, hospices and all the rest of the GIGANTIC conspiracy to "murder" TS one whould think there would be a LITTLE about where the Schindlers resources came from.

Your lack of historical perspective is appalling. People like TS died as a matter of routine before the taxpayers had taxes sweated out of them to maintain their minimal existences.

Yes I have lumped them all together. It is so rare to have one actually courteously discuss issues when most of the comments are insults and comparisions to Nazis. Just look at this thread.

Lawyers don't make the evidence valid or acceptable to the courts. It has to stand on its own. While I don't dispute your contention there were bad lawyers I also don't think they could have gotten any better.

Thanks for trying to answer my questions about finances.

I do not flame bait on this subject. However I do respond to insults in kind.

If there is nothing to argue about I don't try and create disputes.

Sorry but that wouldn't load for me. However, I have seen most of the videos available and don't see what is claimed that they show.

If it were only left to God TS would have departed years ago it was MAN which artifically maintained her.

Thanks for posting the link to the video, again. It's been posted over and over and over. I had to watch it again. Terri was such a vibrant happy woman. I'll never understand why some people wanted her dead.

Btw, the link works just fine, like it always has. Anyone who tells you otherwise is trying to pull the wool over your eyes.

Is it impossible for you to tell the truth about those opposed to your view? Must you lie about their beliefs?
Since when is pointing out a simple FACT "bragging" about the tragedies that fact points out?

You claim to want the truth but lie about those not in agreement with you.

What I said is absolutely true. You are a liar. You're claiming that the link to the video doesn't work, because you don't want to admit the truth. The ugly truth is, you advocate euthanizing people for the "crime" of being disabled.
