I feel sorry for this newspaper and the way it has added to the injustice done to Terri....but I feel even more sorry for its readers, who are so cheated from the full story.

This is also the largest newspaper in Florida. It is also, probably, going to print in Monday's edition the AP wire story containing a quote from Terri's parents that 'she is learning to say I love you'. Terri can't say 'HELP!, let alone 'I love you'. Terri can't 'joke'. The parents need some serious PR help. God bless Terri, but the actions of her parents are not working in Terri's best interests.

The readers definitely are being cheated, but not by the paper.

Could not DISagree with ya more on that post.

Have you read the statement by the Schindler's attorneys when they had their visit with Terri on Christmas eve?

Do you assume to know what is going on within Terri or what she is capable of emoting?

Terri knows EXACTLY when her father is about to kiss her...he threatens her with his silliness and movement and standard tickle and she responds with glee.

Snapper...you do not know, and nor do I. We JUST DON'T KNOW

But if you could for one minute SUSPEND what you cannot really know, and believe EVEN one line of the attorney's write ups about Terri's responsiveness..you would be singing a different tune.

And their observations of Terri's APPROPRIATE EMOTIONS and AWARENESS of her surroundings is backed up by the Schindler's first attorney PAT ANDERSON as well as Pat's husband, who has written to his agony over the BIG LIE being perpetuated about Terri being PVS.

BTW---you could consider the fact that during the actual testimony given by both sides, medical people, in court to help the judge determine Terri's mental and physical state....there was a TIE. So to BREAK that tie...felos brought in an Ohio neuro doc who was known to him by his brother (felo's brother) because they shared an association in a euthanasia group.

If there are doctors split down the MIDDLE on a PVS condition, I'D RULE ON THE SIDE OF NON-PVS on GENERAL PRINCIPLE. Wouldn't you?

Maybe Michael could not have abused terri and hidden her away all these years if the PVS ( which EVERYTHING hinged on for them...a diagnosis they NEEDED in order to KILL HER, don'tchaknow?

Maybe someone has kept these letters by the attorney's for the Schindlers handy...it would be GREAT to POST them here about now.

I TOTALLY DISAGREE WITH YOU!!!!!!

How can you say that? You haven't seen Terri? Terri's parents aren't the only one saying she speaks. With due respect, YOU'RE JUST REPEATING THE WORDS OF FELOS AND THE SPINNING MEDIA.

There's a medical document that STATES: TERRI WAS SAYING *STOP* AND OTHER WORDS, IN 1991.

IMAGINE HOW MUCH BETTER TERRI WOULD BE TODAY IF SCHIAVO HAD NOT STOPPED HER THERAPY IN 1992 OR 1993. I BELIEVE WHAT THOSE WHO HAVE ACTUALLY BEEN WITH TERRI ARE SAYING.

Please consider all the eye witness reports, before you agree with the SPIN FROM FELOS AND THE MEDIA.

You seem to be all over the board on this story. Why are you attacking Terri's parents like this? Why do you think her husband is refusing to allow video of Terri? Why do you think the nurses testified under oath that Terri could say some words? You could tell on the video of terri and her dad that that she was trying to answer him. With proper therapy, there is no reason she can't learn to say a few words. And many doctors agree with the Schindlers. I don't understand your attack.
