Terri Schiavo's remains buried in Clearwater

Terri Schiavo's husband buried her cremated remains in a Clearwater cemetery Monday, inscribing on her bronze grave marker that ``I kept my promise.''

David Gibbs, an attorney for the woman's parents, Bob and Mary Schindler, said inscribing the marker that way was a nasty political statement by Michael Schiavo, who held the service and burial Monday before telling her family.

``Obviously, that's a real shot and another unkind act toward a grieving mom and dad,'' Gibbs said.

After earlier announcing plans to bury his wife's ashes in their native Pennsylvania, Michael Schiavo instead interred them at Sylvan Abbey Memorial Park in Clearwater, near Tampa, his attorney, George Felos, said in a short news release Monday.

Nurses have signed affadavits that she swallowed jello and ice chips.

And evidence of the harm they did to Terri was noted in the autopsy. The foreign matter those nurses introduced into Terri's airway likely caused the aspirated pneumonia she suffered.

The C scan s'plained plenty.

One does not need to be a doctor to see that brain was 80% water.

It was not functionable.

Poor fella's need strenght in numbers. Its some sort of liver problem which prohibits independent brain action.

Was she dying, malakhi?

She died 15 years ago. It required several shocks from a defibrillator, over a period of 30 minutes, to restore a regular heartbeat. Her body was rescussitated, but her mind was gone due to permanent brain damage caused by anoxia.

Then some lawyer really proved himself to be an incompetent whelp. Only person to blame is the court/lawyer who failed to question all those who had contact with Terri and Michael.

the whole situation STILL reeks!

[the Deejay]

The foreign matter those nurses introduced into Terri's airway likely caused the aspirated pneumonia she suffered.

That's right.

[TigersEye]

Dehydrating her to death cured that didn't it?

[Alkhin]

Then why the court-order to get the tube pulled? Why the refusal to let the family be with her in her final moments? Why the necessity of shielding her from all assistance?

[syriacus]

Why wasn't a conclusive medical examination conducted before they pulled the tube?

Because it might have shown Terri was not a vegetable.

[EternalVigilance]

Yes, something like "I kept my promise, in your face Swindlers"

That's one of the more disgusting things I've seen on FR.

The Schindler family has demonstrated tremendous strength of character and faith under the most trying of circumstances imaginable.

You obviously know nothing of those qualities.

[Alkhin]

Before or after she was starved to death?

[TigersEye]

Of course if she were PVS and had no awareness of anything she didn't actually suffer at all. Right?

[the Deejay]

Show me in the autopsy report where it says,
"STARVED TO DEATH."

[EternalVigilance]

One does not need to be a doctor to see that brain was 80% water.

Unreal.

[TigersEye]

Right?

[Alkhin]

Exactly - and if it had been a peaceful painful death, why did the Schindler's come out horrified and weeping when they went to visit her...and why didnt the public (who was surely involved by this time) get to see pictures of her sleeping comfortably, in repose, to slip peacefully away?

Michael Schiavo was a MURDERER.

[Alkhin]

See post #536

[TigersEye]

Right.

[EternalVigilance]

These people are disgusting ghouls.

No reasoning with them. They're beyond that.

Later.

Follow the money, EVie. In fact, donate more.
