You know what the solution here was simple all along - either this situation needed an permanent mediator, and perhaps the court appointed guardian should have been making all decisions all along here, I'm beginning to think neither side here deserved to be making any decisions in respect to Terri, should have been a totally objective third party all along
this is disgusting and sad that the two sides of this tragedy can't even agree on a funeral, and I'll agree, the husband seems to be a prick on all this
I say let the court appointed guardian make all the decisions, he's got to be fairer than the husband
Makes you wonder why Greer didn't take this tact. Your suggestion makes perfect sense.
There was a court-appointed Guardian ad Litem- Richard Pearse. In 1998. He recommended that Michael Schiavo be replaced. Judge Greer discarded his recommendations and fired him as GAL.
Next case....
I believe Greer is the court appointed guardian.Is that correct?
I concur.
On my only post on this subject I said essentially the same thing as you.
At the first hint of disagreement between the two families a court appointed guardian should have been put in place with full power of attorney and the award for malpractice placed in trust for Terri's care with instructions that the funds be spent on the maximum care and therapy available.
That would have been the honorable and fair solution. If that approach had been followed Terri would be alive and the best that could have been done for her would have been done.
