“It is likely Terri was complimented by how terrific she looked and this would have encouraged her to continue to deprive her body of food.”

Hey... isn't the author doing a little 'channeling' here? Whoa... this hack should hold out for more money. Ain't often you get a psychic-reporter on the staff!

I guess Anorexia, obesity in childhood killed Terri... at least, that's what they're telling themselves now.

MICHAEL SCHIAVO'S lies and contradictory testimony in easy to read format

Interesting that the "loved one" who should have noticed any eating disorder at that stage of Terri's life was her husband, Mikey!

110 lbs? Depending on her body type that may not have been too skinny. Where is the Karen Carpenter type too-skinny photo? This story is a crock and involves the oft-repeated liberal talking points on Terri.

WOW. Making up stories seems to be the norm these days. Everything in there was pure speculation on the part of the author.

“*****It is likely***** Terri was complimented by"

Sounds like she was guessing one and two referring to what was LIKELY said before she entered the hospital.

Where does the channeling come in?

"I guess Anorexia, obesity in childhood killed Terri... at least, that's what they're telling themselves now."

It killed Carpenter. Doctors have offered their opinion that she may have been bulimic. Is that not plausible?

It is true the bloated features in her high school class picture

I wonder if one of these pictures is on the net somewhere. I have a hard time believing this girl ever weighed 250 pounds. I wonder where the writer got that info --- from Michael?

Even Michael Schiavo has stated that his wife did not have an eating disorder.

People who are so blatantly ignorant of the facts shouldn't be allowed to write news articles.

Truth doesn't bother me, bub.

I had never seen this 250 pound figure before. I saw 200 pounds written in various articles, I wondered where this extra 50 pounds came from.

By the way, you may want to keep your ignorant questions to yourself.

Terri had been an overweight teenager, at one point weighing 250 pounds.

Every report I have seen put her weight in high school at perhaps 150. I have never seen this 250 before and, given the level of the rest of the article, I am thinking she is just making it up.

There is NO proof that Terri suffered from bulemia. And the MSM keep using the "fact" that she did as the foundation of a variety of rationales to prove she was not murdered. . . that she was responsible for her own death.

I'm not sure why people can't see through this favorite trick of those who must promote moral relativism and new age sophistry.

Again with the cheap labor. No self-respecting pimp would expect his girls to work for nothing.

And the MSM will portray her as a gigantic woman who battered poor little Michael (rather than vice versa).

Whoa! I didn't read that in the papers! Terri yanked out own feeding tube! Which paper was it in?

Yo, Jennifer - Your article is a thesis built on a steaming pile of crap. First, her HUSBAND, with whom she was living at the time of her "collapse", was her "close relative" that should have noticed any signs of an eating disorder. Second, you need to demonstrate that it is feasible, plausible, and probable that she was anorexic before blaming her "collapse" on that disorder. Third, you don't even catch a whiff of the irony in your assertion that Terri was starved to death because she was anorexic.

Pathetic.

From the article: It is true the bloated features in her high school class picture had been transformed;

Ms. Hunter is offending people right and left, big and small, old and young as she attempts to spin.

Bottom line: Terri's parents did not kill her.
