Terri's Day challenges the nation to unify

This, from a link on that page, is interesting. It tells of a new system to evaluate coma status said to be considerably better than the Glasgow Coma Scale. My question is, could this be used retroactively to shed more light on Terri's condition? Even if the answer to that is "no," this new test shows us that Dr. Cranford et al. were using poor, less accurate tools to give Terri a death sentence.

The FOUR test (FOUR = Full Outline of UnResponsiveness)

Coincidentally I partly watched a program but do not remember the channel last night of a young guy who went into a coma following an accident and stayed in the coma for 19 years, then suddenly started talking. It parallels the Mayo observations. He was kept at home in a normal environment and treated as if he were aware of all around him. As he came out of it, he still had no memory following the accident, but was fine with previous memories. He could not talk well and because he was bed ridden, like Terri, he could not move his atrophied muscles. i guess time will tell how he emerges.

"It is all any of us can wish for at the end of our worldly lives"

That's all we want, to leave this world when God decides it's time.

I heard on the news that Tom Cruise's religion is taking
over Plant City now. I guess they're spreading out.

Happy Birthday, Dear Sophie!

Today is Sophie Scholl's 85th birthday. Except for events long ago, there is a good chance she'd still be with us. But it is in her death at age 21, on February 22, 1943, that Sophie's heart and soul yet shine. That was the day Sophie was tried by a Nazi court, and immediately executed (along with her brother Hans and Christoph Probst, a close friend), for the "crime" of Christian protest against the Nazi regime of Adolf Hitler. The three young people were leaders of the "White Rose" resistance. Knowing full well the consequences if they were caught by the dreaded Gestapo, they continued to express their convictions with leaflets, saying: WE WILL NOT BE SILENCED. WE ARE YOUR BAD CONSCIENCE. THE WHITE ROSE WILL GIVE YOU NO PEACE.

Sophie Scholl looked her accusers in the eye at the sham trial. She told them that their war was lost and that they would themselves soon be in the dock. Even the Nazis would stress later that she faced her death with calm and unshakeable courage. "So many have died for this regime," she said. "It's high time somebody died against it."

The White Rose members put their lives on the line to fight against the same evil values that we here oppose, and see so often -- in the Death Cult... the so-called right-to-die movement... "bioethics"... and all the other ideologies that cheapen life. Where life is not sacred, civilization itself must end; for there is nothing the keep the strong from preying on the weak, the old, the disabled, the unborn, the sick. As we see the dark power rising again today, let us promise Sophie and the White Rose to carry on the fight against evil.

Happy birthday, dear Sophie. Till we meet...

(Karen Ann Quinlan was not brain dead -- she survived nearly ten years after being removed from a respirator.)

Her parents refused to remove her feeding tube, because they understood that would have caused her to starve and dehydrate to death. Now her mother is running the euthanasia circuit, advocating the starving and dehydration of others.

The Man Who Slept For 19 Years. Terry W*****. (I can't remember his last name. Walden? No. Walters? No. Help me out here.)

Happy Birthday, Sophie!!!

Terry Wallis. I got lucky on Google :-)

Hmm. I think it was Karen Ann's father who refused to remove the feeding tube. Could it be that even then, the mother was more of a ghoulie?

Hmm (and I hope this is not TOO cynical :-) ) From which parent would Karen Ann most likely learn anorexia (to fit in a dress), drugs (Valium) and alcohol?

They are going all over Florida and look how well Cruise turned out. He's at such a high level that he knows about the head god, zenu.

[floriduh voter]

I just got word that some really unprincipled types are making fun of Terri on the Florida Fire threads. I can't believe freepers can be so cruel. Wait until it's their life on the line. They'll be asking Terri's freepers to help save them!

(Florida's disabled lawyers are having some type of summit or meeting of the minds. I hope this means that reform is ahead in Florida. Wouldn't that be welcome and unexpected news?) Or, it's just more grandstanding. Time will tell.

"Even though her fragile body was beginning to fail, Andrea still continued to touch countless thousands across the continent."

So much like Terri's legacy.

Dr. Cranford, et all had the BEST TOOL that money can buy: a corrupt judiciary.

[floriduh voter]

The guy was on tv before. His memory stops back when he first went into the coma. He thinks it's nineteen years ago and he doesn't recognize his grown daughter. He's a friendly fellow.

And, Judge George Greer based his decision to tamper with witness testimony by Diane Myers on a movie about Karen Ann Quinlan. As usually, incompetent Greer got it wrong because he failed to take into account that Karen Ann Quinlan didn't die after being taken off of (I think) a ventilator.

Greer added wrong but his goal was to turn Terri into a pre-teen who would not have been capable of choosing life. Greer tampered with witness testimony so that he could change Terri's age from 19 to much younger.

And why isn't he BEHIND BARS YET? There is no statute of limitation on murder, even for judges.
