I didn't take your comments amiss at all. I just wanted to refer to a litany of half-truths and lies from hostile media. Terri is regularly referred to as brain dead (no), comatose (no), PVS (no), hopeless (no), and so on. They make it sound as if it is just pulling the plug on a person on life support; but she's never been on life support. They mention all the 19 judges, but don't mention these are not reviews of the actual facts in the case or (so to speak) retrials of the case. They are routine affirmations of another judge's findings, which are about impossible to change, even if they are lies -- as they are in Terri's case. Finally, they always call it a "right-to-die" case, but this is a treatable, disabled woman with many years to live. She's not dying. She is being put to death.
The real irony of the case is that her husband has been using his legal guardianship to kill her -- when we have every reason to suspect she is brain damaged from him trying to strangle her in a domestic fight 14 years ago. The courts are going to finish murdering her for him.
If you want to bone up on the case, Freeper posts have been very informative. It's fascinating (and heartbreaking).

Hi, T'wit. That picture of Terri above goes along with your words, and for the same reason: Terri is a very real person.
Michael used to get her out of bed, into the community -- now he does not. Why not? Because then it would be obvious to the world that she is not some poor dying person who needs to be put out of her misery!
It is NOT Terri who has changed, but MICHAEL!
So -- all the talk about 'coma' through all these years was a deliberate disinformation campaign. .
Do we know if Felos and Michael perpuated that lie? Did they or those close to them claim that Terri was comatose? I had to correct my local paper (as did others), they did make the change, but WHY in 2003 was that word still being used when Terri CLEARLY was not in a coma after her initial hospitalization?

"The real irony of the case is that her husband has been using his legal guardianship to kill her -- when we have every reason to suspect she is brain damaged from him trying to strangle her in a domestic fight 14 years ago. The courts are going to finish murdering her for him." BUMP for truth...
Dr. Hammesfahr, who examined Terri and is willing to treat her free of charge (if only MS would allow it) gave an excellent radio interview in which he clearly debunks the false and misleading information disseminated by Felos over the last 10 years. Felos has never allowed full access to Terri's medical records or ANY of the malpractice trial transcripts and exhibits. Where there's smoke, there's fire, imo.
