I believe the swallowing tests, which said that she couldn’t swallow.

I appoint you as judge. Terri never had a swallowing test since 1993. You have read testimony from caregivers that she is able to swallow years after that date. Now, before you order that Terri not be allowed not to try oral nutrition, would you order another swallowing test?

I think you and I have gone over this in the past. She had swallowing tests in 1991, 1992, 1993. I would not expect her to improve at that point, and the testimony you refer to is much disputed. Might I personally have wanted another? Perhaps. Would I expect it to show me anything different? Not really.
