Thats one doctor's opinion. I understand there was a panel of doctors two picked by Mr. Schivo and two picked by her parents and one picked by the court. They all agreed that she was in a vegetative state no meaningful functions at all. God bless her parents, but they are living in a dream world if they think she will recover. I do understand that hope and denial. This whole mess is heart wrenching.
Well said. I'd hate to lose my child like that and I hope that I have the guts to do the right thing. I know one thing, I would HATE to live my life out like she has.
This is not what I understand to be the fact, but that Judge Greer chose not to accept the testimony of Terri's parents' doctors. I also understand that at least one of the doctors picked by M.S. is not an expert in neurology, but is known as "Dr. Death" because of his membership in the Hemlock Society and his insistence on euthanisia.
