"He's not spending it on Terri's rehabilitaion only for the hospice."

I thought that Medicare was paying the hospice bill.
What exaxtly is ms doing with the money except paying for the lawyers.

That's what I thought too. We sure wouldn't want Michael's lifestyle messed up because of an extra expense. Let the tax payers pick up the tab.

I read an article as of I think the end of 2002 that gave a breakdown of what the judge has authorized to be paid from the fund. Most of it was lawyer fees, plus a hefty amount to the bank for managing the fund.

I made an assumption that the hospice bills were coming out of the settlement money. I would like to know who is paying the hospice bill.

If the husband isn't even paying for that, I don't see why this isn't considered fraud, since the funds were for Terri's welfare.

Hopefully we can save Terri, but I sure want an autospy done if she dies. Evidently the husband says no autospy and a quick cremation. He may want to hide old wounds or he doesn't want the public to know how Terri suffered while her family looked on helpless.
