David Brown of the Washington Post writes...
"Terri Schiavo died of the effects of a profound and prolonged lack of oxygen to her brain on a day in 1990, but what caused that event isn't known and may never be, the physician who performed her autopsy said today."
and...
"She died of marked dehydration. She did not starve to death," Thogmartin said. As measured by the balance of salt and water in her body fluids, the dehydration was the most severe he had ever seen. This attested to Schiavo's robust underlying health, and in particular the strength of her heart, the pathologist said.

THE DEHYDRATION WAS THE MOST SEVERE HE HAD EVER SEEN. MAY THOSE WHO WANTED TO SEE TERRI SCHIAVO DEAD GET ON THEIR KNEES AND THANK GOD FOR THE GIFT OF LIFE.
Dr. Gambone, Terri's former doctors who resigned in 2003, said she had an obvious will to live. I suppose that wouldn't show up in the autopsy either.
Didn't George Felos come from Terri's room when she was dying and tell the public how peaceful she was? Well, if the dehydration was the worst the doctor had ever seen; that tells me George Felos lied to the public. What else has he lied about?
I was impressed with the straight forwardness of Dr. Thogmartin, and I believe I understood him to say they were open to any new evidence or something akin to that. I thought he left the door open for more investigation. Ironically, I was listening to the news on the radio, and heard one of the MSM reporters say 'that the medical examiner found the husband could not have caused her condition,' I didn't hear the doctor say that....did I miss it or did they make it up?
