Remembering Jimmy Chambers, God bless his supporting family and R.I.P.
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.

Right, right, "patient" confidentiality. That's for when they abuse or kill the patient. Then they hide behind the PATIENT's confidentiality to cover up THEIR OWN actions. This is exactly what they did (or tried to do) to Carla Iyer. She had nothing bad or even interesting to say about the patient -- Terri. Instead, Carla was attacked for talking about Michael's abuses of Terri. But Michael isn't protected by any confidentiality laws.
