Hi kdf1, thanks for replying.

Yes, there is much more, if you go to Terri's site you can read the entire story. Of course, it may be a little slanted since it's her father and mother who are fighting to save the life of their daughter. I'm not even sure where to begin.

I don't even know what to write here. Her husband successfully sued some doctors for malpractice and won, but the catch was as long as his wife is alive the money has to go to her care. So for the past decade, he has done everything in his power to make sure his wife has not had a chance to improve. It's heartbreaking.

And he's her guardian. Terri's parents have tried to get the guardianship transfered to them, even to telling him he could have all the malpractice money, but he refuses. The husband has a dirty lawyer, a dirty judge, and a dirty doctor who have done everything possible to end Terri's life. Her life has been spared several times now only at the very last minute, but it looks like this time they're finally going to murder her.

Go to her website, the facts are there. They have a video you can watch, determine for yourself if you think she's a vegetable or not.

Personally, I couldn't bring myself to watch it--my heart is already breaking the way it is.

Yea nmh, it appears to be for the money.

Many years ago, he sued his wife's doctors for malpractice and won. But the catch was, as long as she's alive the money has to go towards her care (hundreds of thousands of dollars). So for the past ten years he has done everything in his power to make sure Terri hasn't been able to improve at all (to the degree of not even allowing nurses to brush her teeth for the past ten years).

The husband has guardian rights. The parents have begged him to allow them to take over Terri's care, even to allowing him to keep all the malpractice money. But he won't give up the guardianship. Terri has been slated to die several times in the past few years, and it appears next Monday they're finally going to murder her.

Go to her website. The facts are there. If it's a little slanted, it's only because a mother and father are fighting to save their daughter. They have a video you can watch, decide for yourself if you think she's a vegetable or not.

Not that I'm aware of. I know that a petition has been sent to him, but I'm not sure he has any legal power to do anything.

It started with the law (?) allowing the murder of unborn innocent babies for money, now it progresses to the murder of those who can't speak for themselves, is there a money angle here also, maybe the next step will be the murder of those who are not quite normal, who don't look quite correct, who do not have blond hair and blue eyes the list is endless and the slope is slippery.

I hope that her husband, and those who support him, lives a long, long life and suffers with nightmares of his wifes suffering such a inhumane daeth for as long as he lives.

I pray the our loving GOD wecomes her home with open arms to never know pain, sorrow, or suffering ever again.

GOG bless you, Terri.

My friend, there's evidence the reason they found her in a coma is because Terri's husband beat the living snot out of her. But the judge won't allow them to investigate it. And it may be one reason why the husband wants her dead.

Go to her website. Read the facts. Watch the movie and decide for yourself if she's a vegetable or not (BTW, she's not on any life-support at all, the feeding tube was for convenience).

It looks as if Terri is on Death Row about to be executed by "cruel and unusual punishment" and no prospect yet seen of the Governor granting her a "stay".

What heinous crime has she committed to make her ineligible for the same process that might be granted to harden criminals?

Doesn't she at least warrant a "stay" until her crimes can be verified? (or a more "humane" execution?) /sarcasm.

Prayers for Terri. I think her husband is a complete scumbag. If it wasn't for the money, why would he not reliquish care of this woman to her parents along with her medical care money minus any expenses to this point? He even has another woman and a baby waiting in the wings, yet he is so damn greedy, he continues to hold tight to that 3/4 of a mil. SICK man, but if the allegations of spousal abuse are true, he never gave a damn about this woman to begin with.

BTW, I agree with what comes around goes around. Maybe not always immediate, but it happens. My parents have got their turnabout after 13 years(dad left my mother for another woman). Suffice to say dad's life is falling apart, so is his mistress/wife(yeah, he's with the woman he cheated on my mother with), and my mother's life is starting to be blessed after a rough 13 years after being dumped.

Thank you for the ping, Calpernia. Jeb has to step in with Terry's life at stake. If he hears, he will intervene...and charge her hubby with domestic abuse - at least, I hope!

If the parents allow this, they should be beaten. Some things are just wrong, but you don't have to just stand by and let them happen. If I had to, I would not hesitate to kidnap my own daughter to save her life, consequences be damned.

Is evil truly going to win?

The only thing required for evil to triumph is for good men to do nothing.

Emails sent.

This needs to be brought to the front page of every newspaper in America.

This has been going on for years, and I only heard about it today thanks to FR! We cannot allow this to become a precedent!

I don't know if you got through all the posts. Thanks for coming by the thread though.

I watched the video her parents took. It really looks like sometype of self inflicted autism. She reminds me of the children I use to work with when I was a therapist years ago.

What convinced me the sob is dirty is his determination to kill her.
He must be connected to the judge in some way.
My gut feeling is that something is not right here

I signed the petition, too, Calpernia.

Jeb must respond to this. Please ping me if you hear any updates.

Thank you.
