Recall that during Terri's last days, mouthpieces for the alleged husband were repeating some reports from a brain scan that supposedly indicated that Terri's brain had atrophied to 20% of its original size (and therefore proved the 'persistent vegitative state' prognosis)?

Even from my totally uneducated perspective, I believe this report represents a flat denial of that claim.

Good point. Even after two weeks of dehydration, her brain was still half the size of a normal brain.

See if PVS is a recognized diagnosis which in and of itself will qualify under Medicare for Hospice benefits.

To my knowledge, it does not.

Here is their screwup. Suncoast is toast.
