According to Michael and his court testimony, Nov. 19, 1993, he and Terri were talking about Terri's UNCLE who was EXTREMELY DEPRESSED and disabled AFTER he lost his wife and child in a train accident.
HOW do you not know that Terri didnt mean "I wouldnt want to live like that"....as meaning..... "IF I lost my spouse and children, I wouldnt want to live being depressed and in grief...I would have rather chosen to have died with them ?" Does that make sense? (see PROOF below in MIchaels testimony)
I have heard stories of families who have lost their spouses and children in fires and accidents and only one parent is left alive and BELIEVE ME....I myself have said it many times when I hear such on the news that "I would have wanted to die with them, then to live my life with out my entire family."....
By the way, I want you to note that in describing this scenario....he SPECIFICALLY STATES He, Terri, and his brother..........SO WHERE IN THE WORLD DOES THAT SISTER IN LAW WHO TESTIFIED SHE WAS THERE IN THIS CONVERSATION FIT IN?
Now do you see why NOBODY believes his statement of "terri's wishes" ????
TOO MANY WHAT-IFS.
A court should NEVER have based their decision on hearsay and most probably , incorrect hearsay.In case you don't believe me....here's the proof:
November 19, 1993: Statement by Michael Schiavo in court hearing
1 A She was my wife. I lived with her. We shared
2 things. We shared a bed. We shared our thoughts. And
3 one incident in particular, a few years back when her
4 grandmother was -- Grandmother Shindler -- she was in and
5 out of a coma. She was in. She was out. She was real
6 sick. And we'd go see her, and we had a vacation planned,
7 to come here to Florida; myself, my brother and my wife.
8 So when we left, her grandmother was still
9 critical. We left, got on the train, and we had this
10 conversation about her grandmother and things like that.
11 And we started talking about her uncle, her uncle Fred,
12 who had lost his wife and child tragically in a train
13 wreck. And he was on an emotional roller coaster. He was
14 a very distraught person, agreeably, after losing your
15 wife and child on a train wreck.
16 And, I guess, I believe he went out one night had
17 a few drinks and wrapped his car around a telephone pole.
18 And her uncle was in a coma for awhile and emerged a man
19 that she never knew anymore. He was disabled. He can't
20 walk. He can't do things for himself. His kids are his
21 Power of Attorney now. We got into discussion about that
22 and she said to me, I would never want to live like that.
23 I would want to just die.
Now do you see why NOBODY believes his statement of "terri's wishes" ????
Alas, alas, the people of Pinellas-Pasco counties must believe Michael R. Schiavo: they overwhelmingly endorsed his judge in the Aug. 31 nonpartisan election.
