No surprise here. Quill is just another one of those doctors who think quality of life is the issue. He's sided with Cranford on plenty of things. This is the face of hospice care for our future.

Among other things he said, I found this to be interesting: "Although I did not examine her, from the data I reviewed, I have no doubt that Terri Schiavo was in a persistent vegetative state and that her cognitive and neurologic functions were unfortunately not going to improve."

Terri ping! If anyone would like to be added to or removed from my Terri ping list, please let me know by FReepmail!

that's pretty telling... doctor shortcuts... don't look at the patient, just look at her charts that Michael purged of all POSITIVE comments each day.

"Although I did not examine her, from the data I reviewed, I have no doubt that Terri Schiavo was in a persistent vegetative state and that her cognitive and neurologic functions were unfortunately not going to improve."

The many doctors who said they too did not examine her, but sided with the family that she was not PVS were vehemently criticized. Where is the criticism now? Amazing!
