I haven't seen anything about bruises. But then, come to think of it, I haven't seen any of the really old med. docs from her first year or so. The strangulation possibility was brought on by Dr. Hammesfahr's testimony if I remember correctly. He testified regarding the rigidity of her neck and ... well, here's the link, lol.

"But then, come to think of it, I haven't seen any of the really old med. docs from her first year or so." (your post)

I quite agree! I remember reading something about Schiavo not allowing anyone in Terri's family see any of the medical reports. It was all hush-hush and probably was argued from the perspective of patient confidentiality. However, one would think that surely those people (doctors,nurses,etc.) who were with Terri & the Schindlers from the beginning can testify as to her condition. They can be subpoenaed can't they? And the hospital records, too? But this is one part where Greer really makes me angry. I remember reading somewhere that he wouldn't allow those things to be admitted into the transcripts. So, of course, there is no legal record of it. Makes me ill!!

Thanks for the link on this. I don't think you get that kind of neck injury from anorexia or hypokalemia. I would dearly love to see her medical chart, from the first 30 days even.

Seems even more sadly that her personal life was very hard before she collapsed. May God bless her richly with peace and joy in this world and when her times comes for the next world.
