It's all about HIM. What a psychopath.

Bears repeating. We can surmise he is an amnesiac, too, from the way he 'suddenly' remembered Terri didn't want to be kept alive in her condition.. after he won her lawsuit. Maybe that is the new cure for amnesia -- winning a lawsuit. Doctor to amnesia patient: "Win one lawsuit and call me in the morning."

I agree, bears repeating, again and again, even if he succeeds in ending her life this time. I'd call him more of a sociopath, but a sicko just the same. And the lawsuit money? Let's not forget he vowed to use the lawsuit money to help fund her rehab, regardless of whether or not Terri 'woke up'. I, too, think Michael is afraid of what she might remember or say, although even if she did wake up, so to speak, it's hard to say how much she would remember after 15 years or if she would be taken seriously, given the time that's gone by. I think he's hiding something. He has denied Terri even the most rudimentary care given to those in her condition, like physical therapy, which should be a crime in itself. And I wonder why a Nobel prize winning doctor can announce that he feels he could still help Terri after all this time of effectively no treatment, and has successfully rehabilitated patients much worse off, that the powers that be, that can make the decisions like Judge Greer and Mr. Schiavo, turn a deaf ear. It's suspicious, at best.

I guess we may never know. What a sad day.

I'd settle for a lot less than King's English. I'm just being inquisitive here, how did she communicate?

"...saying he wanted to put the situation behind him."


Michael: "My wife is in a brain-dead, she can't eat, she can't speak, she has to have round-the-clock care.

Me: "Man, that's terrible! I'm really sorry."

Michael: "Yeah, I know. I can't believe this is happening to ME!"

Folks, including myself, thought it was over. That's why no one is there.

Please! After all you've witnessed in this case, can you sincerely say that you thought it was over today.

I wouldn't be surprised if Terri's parents and family are not allowed to see her again.

I'm confused, I didn't think they could remove the feeding tube if she has been ordered to testify before Congress.

So what if Terri verbally said something along the lines of wanting to die if she were in a vegetative state...how can that alone decide this? What is the declaration of intent if it is not in writing???

I don't know, I was on a related thread. He has denied her Holy Communion. It seems like the sociopath might succeed in ending her life this time, despite the heroic efforts of so many. What a sad day.

Your post skills lack causing me to misread.

I am not nuts. You are a disrupter and need to watch your step.

Michael Medved just said that the feeding tube has been removed and might have been removed as long as 90 minutes ago.

Dear Heavenly Father, be with Terri. Keep her in your loving arms and let her not suffer.

A U.S. congressman cannot overrule Florida law -- he just wishes he could.

We shall soon see if a Florida judge can act in contempt of a Congressional Subpoena and long have that action stand.

Caught it on reread but I don't like SR92's tone in this.

Congress doesn't have the cajones to confront the courts.

They'd Better Grow Some in a Hurry, because Time is of the Essence!
