I don't post here much but was reading this thread. I also recall the woman you are speaking of...that during the debate for Terri's Law she mentioned that she had helped write the 1999 law and said that they never meant it for a person who was brain damaged, rather someone who was comatose. Could you be thinking of House Representative Heather Fiorentino?
they never meant it
That a shortcoming of a democratic system: the lawmakers can always say they "never meant it" when the system fails poor folk like Terri Schindler. I am not impressed with this lawmaker's concession of her own failure.
We're forgetting, TR, that George Felos was in on the writing of this law as a learned Consultant, and you know how smooth he is. This woman was truly contrite.
Thanks again, mommy23 ... glad you're aboard.
