I KNOW it would never be JED Bush.

Of course there was dehyration, they refused her water!

You couldn’t dehydrate a blind, incontinent dog without the law being all down your throat, but a mentally damaged person is fair game if you have an evil judge.

The facts are this: her parents and siblings wanted to take care of her. Her husband wanted her dead. The law sided on the side of death. Period.

Bobby was supporting Sam Brownback. He (Bobby) and had had about a 2 hour conversation during the straw poll. The guy is one of the nicest, most humble people I have ever spoken to. His faith is strong even after all they went through.

I do not know who he is supporting instead of Sam.

[TangoLimaSierra]

Agreed.

[pgyanke]

I spell checker in that hands of a mental midget is a dangerous thing.

I love the smell of irony in the evening...

[Diogenesis]

One cannot determine blindness or dvs by autopsy.
TS was a 'useless eater' to the Judge in Florida
who had a 'special relationship' to the those who wanted her ...dead.

How quickly the world forgets.

" 9. Between September 1939 and April 1945 the defendants Karl Brandt, Blome, Brack, and Hoven unlawfully, willfully, and knowingly committed war crimes, as defined by Article II of Control Council Law No. 10, in that they were principals in, accessories to, ordered, abetted, took a consenting part in, and were connected with plans and enterprises involving the execution of the so-called "euthanasia" program of the German Reich in the course of which the defendants herein murdered hundreds of thousands of human beings, including nationals of German-occupied countries. This program involved the systematic and secret execution of the aged, insane, incurably ill, of deformed children, and other persons, by gas, lethal injections, and diverse other means in nursing homes, hospitals, and asylums. Such persons were regarded as "useless eaters" and a burden to the German war machine. The relatives of these victims were informed that they died from natural causes, such as heart failure. German doctors involved in the "euthanasia" program were also sent to Eastern occupied countries to assist in the mass extermination of Jews."

LOL !

You should read the autopsy report. What you just stated is untrue.

1998

Jun - Guardian ad Litem appointed by court to investigate Terri's case.

Oct - Schiavo offers to donate Terri's inheritance to charity if family agrees to allow removal of her hydration and nutrition.

Dec - Guardian ad Litem recommends the court not approve Schiavo's petition.

1999

Feb - Attorney George Felos files bias charges against Guardian ad Litem.

Jun - Guardian ad Litem dismissed by the court.

2000

Jan - Judge Greer Conducts Terri’s Feeding Tube Removal Trial.

Feb - Greer Rules to Remove Nutrition Feeding Tube.

Feb – Affidavits filed by 3 doctors state Terri can swallow and is not PVS.

Feb - Greer denies petition to allow Terri swallowing tests.

16 Q Then you go on to say, "And the activity
17 in L1 correlates perfectly with the compression
18 fracture which is presumably traumatic."
19 A That's what it says.
20 Q In other words, the x-ray confirmed the
21 L1 fracture?
22 A The x-ray shows an abnormality at L1
23 which happens to correspond with the abnormal bone
24 turnover on the bone scan at that point.
25 Q What is a compression fracture?
? 26
1 A It's a loss of the mechanical structure
2 of the vertebral body along what we call the end
3 plates of the vertebral body. And the end plates
4 are those portions that are adjacent to the
5 cartilages that separate each vertebral body, the
6 cartilages being the body's shock absorbers.
7 Q Is this compression fracture, then, in
8 common parlance, a broken back?
9 A Yes.
10 Q Is there any way to tell how old that
11 fracture would be?
12 A Well, as I've alluded to, the bone scan
13 gives some suggestion of that.
14 Q More recent rather than less recent?
15 A Correct. Typically in trauma the rule of
16 thumb is that a traumatic fracture is not active on
17 the bone scan after 12 to 18 months. That's the
18 typical rule of thumb. Now, bodies being very
19 variable, there's a lot of variation there, but
20 that's the typical rule of thumb. So if a fracture
21 shows up active on the bone scan, then one makes the
22 presumption that it is relatively recent; i.e.,
23 within 18 months.

She wasn’t “allowed to rest in peace.” She was starved to death. People in her exact condition have been known to return to consciousness, and this dear lady expressed humor, sadness, and interest—to name a few indicators of consciousness—before being starved to death. But then, she was SUCH an inconvenience to her “husband,” who wanted to get on with his life-—without her.

You are sadly mistaken. This woman's brain was damaged to the point she could not recognize her family, talk, swallow, or even follow the simplest command. The autopsy showed her brain was severely damaged consistent with the PVS diagnosis. People in her exact condition do not recover. Nerve tissue, including the brain, does not heal.

[pollywog]

brain dead??? Strange, that isn’t the Terri we saw and heard!!!!!
God will pass judgement on a land that killsinnocent people and calls it good!

[pollywog]

somebody pull out those last minute audios!!!YOu are wrong!!!!!

[Diogenesis]

Nerve tissue, including the brain, does not heal.

Which is why it was so evil to deny her water and food.

Spies, traitors, terrorists and criminals are protected by Florida Statute 765.309 which prevents mercy killing and assisted suicide.
Spies, traitors, terrorists and criminals are protected by Florida Statute 744.3215 which gives them food and water.

Nothing was available for this poor woman whose 'husband' and Judge (who never took the Oath BTW) wanted her dead. dead. dead.

[GreenOgre]

Please read the entire post:

Large portions of her brain that control thought, speech, memory, muscle control... were destroyed. This was dignosed through observation and CAT scan. There was no way this damage would heal. Her brain was incapable of feeling pain, pleasure, or anything. Her Cerebral Cortex had dissolved into fluid.

[Diogenesis]

Observation showed her responsive. I've seen the movies.

CAT scan cannot show anything of what you claim.

She was murdered.

[GreenOgre]

The movie I saw showed a woman flailing around without any thought. She did not respond when someone called her name. Terri had no damage to her throat and could not swallow. Newborn babies have the ability to swallow. It's instinctive. Terri's brain could not function on that level.

Terri's eyes didn't follow movement in the room. That's instinctive.

Her brain was so damaged she lost basic abilities and instincts that rodents have.

There was no change in her condition for 10+ years.

While I think it would be better to put her to sleep than starve her, she felt nothing.

BTW: A CAT scan is perfect for detecting differences in material density. I.E. fluid vs. nerve tissue.

[Diogenesis]

Why do you make stuff up. She followed movements.

Also, although you don’t care,
she was in bed because she was assaulted — and the ONLY
goal of the Court was to protect the perp.
