I am just skeptical of this sudden utterance reported only by her mother at a time when emotions are leading people to desperate acts.
If you aren't automatically skeptical of the outrageous surprise claims of either side at this hour, you are a prime target for any scam that says what you want to hear.
The parents have been trying to say all along that Terri was responding. The husband has been trying to make sure that no one knew it.
It wasn't her mother. It was Barbara Weller.
Not her mother. An attorney.
I was too, until I followed the link earlier on this thread to a video of Terri laughing at something her father said. He referred to something about her eyes that she and her family used to laugh about when she was a child. When he made the comment, she definitely laughed out loud. That woman is not brain dead.
