When Terri was diagnosed PVS, minimally conscious was not included on the scale. It's a new diagnosis. After it's inclusion, Terri was never allowed to be rediagnosed.
Even more so, I know that as her guardian it was his choice to make.
Even though he was her estranged husband? Even if he profited?
Terri Schiavo died on March 31, 2005, at 9:05 A.M. A bit over four hours later—no doubt after intense grieving on his part—Michael Schiavo filed a petition with Judge Greer for administration of her estate as sole beneficiary. Before her death, Michael had protested his innocence on Larry King Live and elsewhere, claiming that the settlement money had been all but used up, leaving him only about $25,000. As it turns out, given the behind-the-scenes financial shenanigans with Felos, there was about $1 million in the account, perhaps $2 million depending upon how well the investments did since 1993. Felos received a little over a half-million for his efforts. Not bad wages for a spiritual killer.
