I believe that sometime close to when Terri collapsed, Michael started working in the medical field. I'm guessing it would have been relatively easy for him to get hold of insulin.
I've heard, but have not checked out, that insulin can be obtained without a prescription. Do you know if that's true.

> however I also believe that insulin is used by some people who are weight conscious to eliminate the excess sugar in their system.

Within the last two days I've been able to listen to an interview of one of Terri's early childhood to adulthood friends who spent a lot of time with Terri and her family and often shared meals with them. She was asked specifically if she had seen any signs of Terri being weight conscious (bulimic) and without hesitation, she said no. In fact, she observed that Terri had a healthy appetite and at that time weighed about 115 lbs.

Yes though it may depend on the state. In PA Insulin R and Insulin N are available without a prescription. In PA however It takes a prescription to get the syringe or needles. I believe some states do not require a script for those either.

It is a shame that so many of us do not trust the courts or the justice system to the point that we are having such a heated bitter debate. In some ways I feel this case shows just how much we do not have faith in the Government that is suppose to represent the best in the history of Humanity. I hope the courts have given all aspects due consideration and they may even have, but given such a tyrannical history of the Judiciary I believe it is appropriate for us to question whether justice has served Terri and ultimately everyone of us. My sincerest hope is that Terri's true wishes are being carried out and that government as was intended is there to protect the rights of the people. As a side note what bothers me tremendously at this time is MS supposed denial of Eucharist to Terri. If this is true shame, SHAME! on him and the courts, if this is true.
