Family members are investigating what they consider to be suspicious circumstances surrounding the death of a nursing home patient at the center of a life and death tug-of-war reminiscent of the Terri Schiavo tragedy.
Seventy-nine-year-old Jimmy Chambers died in the early morning hours of Oct. 24 after the tracheotomy tubes that deliver oxygen from a ventilator to a hole in his neck became unhooked. Family members were told Chambers, a resident of the Anne Maria Rehabilitation and Nursing Center in North Augusta, S.C., apparently pulled the interlocking tubes apart.
"We're having it investigated. We're just incredulous," Chambers' daughter, Deanna Potter, told WND in reference to her siblings. "The last time I saw dad he was blowing me a kiss. I blew him one and he blew one back."
The retired dispatcher for Holland Motor Express died approximately 10 hours later. His death certificate indicates he died of "natural causes."
"Apparently, suffocation is a 'natural cause' when you're on a ventilator. We're contesting that," said Potter. "He suffocated. He didn't just pass away. He struggled and fought. And I'm just so angry."
Potter estimates it would have taken 10 to 14 minutes for her father, deprived of oxygen, to fall unconscious, and questions why the nursing home staff didn't come to his aid.
"The oxygen-saturation meter and his ventilator both would have had alarms going off. Four-thirty, five o'clock in the morning you'd think someone would hear this," she added. "That's the thing that really bothers me and makes me suspicious."

"**Gordon Watts did better fighting for Terri than Jeb Bush did. I recvd this email and of course, we recognize that Gordon did well considering he's not an attorney.**"
The difference is that Gordon actually wanted to fight for Terri, while Jeb just wanted to give the illusion of it.

Good holy grief -- not before breakfast!
In fact, not before one has three stiff drinks.
I don't drink.

We were just having a little discussion of the manliness of Nazis. Now that you've introduced Jackboot Janet, we have a real Nazi to compare with that scientologist wimp-o in the photo (#1024).
When Janet, Donna Shalala and Hillary got together, there was more testosterone at work than in a French regiment.

Hi, Pepper - glad to see you around.
"I wish I knew how to post photos here on FreeRepublic. I've tried before but have been unsuccessful."
You do it using <img src=" ">
Put the full link to the picture inside the quotes.
For example, if you want to post the picture at
http://bellsouthpwp.net/w/a/wampus_swamp/wampus.jpg
you would type <img src="http://bellsouthpwp.net/w/a/wampus_swamp/wampus.jpg">

The presence of only two people has been established as fact - Michael and Terri.
The presence of anyone else in the apartment is pure conjecture on your part unless and until you present some facts to support what you're saying.
If you have any facts of that nature, don't put them here first. Tell it to the police in Pinnelas county first. Police are always interested in anyone who acts like they have facts about the commission of a possible crime. Especially one the police had initially classified as a homicide attempt. So, better have a little talk with them, before they start thinking about the word "withholding" - which can open up a world of trouble.
It's my understanding that LEO's read these message boards. Or will, soon...

Hey, Mikey! I insulted you too! Don't you slight me like that, Mikey Schiavo! ....
"With" Michael Hirsh. Translation - ghost writer. Looks to me like once again Mikey has to hire someone to do the coherent talking for him.

General anesthesia and heavy sedation might be better in this case. Then follow with 3 stiff drinks.

That's why "Macho Man" was the themesong of Janet Reno's Dance Party.
Yeah, the one on the right is a real he-man. (Notice how he sets off Adolph's gaydar...)

June is totally on target with this report. It made me remember a bunch of stuff that I've had great difficulty in dealing with, things we learned while Terri was confined to that hospice room.
Here is one piece of the "puzzle" that I'd like to comment on:
Nagatani, said to be a personal friend of Greer, is now the division director and chief legal counsel of the Pinellas Health Department.
Watch out all you elderly in Pinellas County! You have a great death duo in Greer and Nagatani. You will not only be fleeced by shysters during your golden years, you will also be fleeced as you earthly journey comes to a close. Those will make certain of it. Mary Labyak will be right with them.

Just another way for Michael to line his pockets at Terri's expense. He'll never stop using her.

But I was praised by the death culture, the communists, street rabble, shyster lawyers, the lamestream press and twinkling moonbats.

Y'know, I have never before heard anyone complain about being insulted by the Pope.

Mikey just shows how tender his bruised ego really is.

I'd almost think you were the same person using two different screen names
Your 'thinking' is wrong again.

Wife-killers do tend to have tender egos, especially when they are being insulted by the Pope.

"Y'know, I have never before heard anyone complain about being insulted by the Pope."Michael is whiiiiinnnnning about the "bad" treatment he received while trying to starve and dehydrate Terri to death. His book will be a long whinning rant.

Mikey has no idea what true torture really is...yet. Vengeance is the Lord's. Michael is trying to appease his guilty conscience, if he even has one.

Michael can only hope that he ever attains the sanctity that Terri did.
