Family members are investigating what they consider to be suspicious circumstances surrounding the death of a nursing home patient at the center of a life and death tug-of-war reminiscent of the Terri Schiavo tragedy.
Seventy-nine-year-old Jimmy Chambers died in the early morning hours of Oct. 24 after the tracheotomy tubes that deliver oxygen from a ventilator to a hole in his neck became unhooked. Family members were told Chambers, a resident of the Anne Maria Rehabilitation and Nursing Center in North Augusta, S.C., apparently pulled the interlocking tubes apart.
"We're having it investigated. We're just incredulous," Chambers' daughter, Deanna Potter, told WND in reference to her siblings. "The last time I saw dad he was blowing me a kiss. I blew him one and he blew one back."
The retired dispatcher for Holland Motor Express died approximately 10 hours later. His death certificate indicates he died of "natural causes."
"Apparently, suffocation is a 'natural cause' when you're on a ventilator. We're contesting that," said Potter. "He suffocated. He didn't just pass away. He struggled and fought. And I'm just so angry."
Potter estimates it would have taken 10 to 14 minutes for her father, deprived of oxygen, to fall unconscious, and questions why the nursing home staff didn't come to his aid.
"The oxygen-saturation meter and his ventilator both would have had alarms going off. Four-thirty, five o'clock in the morning you'd think someone would hear this," she added. "That's the thing that really bothers me and makes me suspicious."

I like it here except for the crooked politicians and judges.
Check out the lady who was impaled by her rocking chair. She worked for a Hospice Board Member/Congressman.
It's a great place to get ideas for scary novels.
Good morning to the crew at CP.
By telegraphing that he is fundraising for Libby to the media, the prosecutor will get the hint to go ez on Libby. That's how this administration does things. They talk thru the media. If I end up being wrong, I will send you an e-card.
This happened with Terri too. The media sent word from Jeb to Greer so Greer could pretend that the FDLE was coming and that he was going to have a showdown between FDLE and the Pinellas Sheriff's Office. What an off broadway production that was. The plan was that Terri wouldn't be rescued and Jeb would look like John Wayne but he isn't.
The TRAGIC part of the plan was Terri's murder by the state of Florida for an aduterous husband/narcissist/loser.
Jeb's political future is his problem - Jeb lovers do not realize because they were not here that one day he said he was going in to save her no matter what J. Greer said and the next day Jeb said "there is nothing I can do." Sure, Jeb. Then don't get on the airwaves and give people false hope by lying when somebody's life is at stake.
If Jeb lovers want another person who lies in the White House, they should stick with Jeb Bush. I was a major Jeb supporter. I didn't know about his allegiance to Pinellas cronies with certainty until the charade began.
I cannot trust Jeb Bush with the United States. No way. He looks like a man but he's a RINO wuss.
I know you will appreciate my post last above. Have a great day. Jeb-bots need to wake up but love is blind.
I would have been fully supporting him if I had not been there knowing he had all the good options at his fingertips, and we waited and waited. None were selected, only he washed his hands. He was handed his opportunity to do something good, and he passed it by.

Televising it was a tip off to me. If the intent was legit - you just do it!! Couldn't understand why he did televised his intentions, thought it was a stupid move - now I know and thank you.
What's the other guys name - not Libby...... For some reason, I'm getting them mixed up. True brain fog - too much is happening at work.
Lilies are for Eastertime. Maybe that one lady at the Vigil was right but I shant be posting about it.

Reminder of who is at the core of attacks, the death merchants, the America-haters...remembering the links in post #541 on this thread, here is an item from kristenn on commie Cindy She-man and further unmasking of the dark side:

Apparently not.
"Sen. Mel Martinez is poised to back Florida Attorney General Charlie Crist in his bid for the Republican nomination for governor in the Sunshine State.
Martinez, Floridas most prominent Hispanic politician, is helping Crist raise money in Washington and is expected to formally endorse him soon."

That's a beautiful tree. I can't determine for sure, but those lilies don't look like the Easter variety.
Sure beats anything Hillary dreamed up.
Oh good Lord, Mother Moonbat never met a camera she didn't like. Shindy is an embarassment to mothers and Americans.
There was an earlier mention of Jeb Bush up thread. I thought he would make a fine president myself. Your observation about the televised comments regarding Terri is right. Face it, he's a typical politician just like the rest of them.
As for my state, I'm waiting for Ahhhhnold to crack and pardon Tookie Williams. He just hired one of Gray Davis' former staff members. I held my nose and voted for Arnold, and I'm disgusted with myself.
embarrassment for sure. Can you imagine how her family feels? Ugh!
Did the kid really write that? Good cartoon, btw.
We're discussing Tookie and Ahhhnold on another thread here. There's a lot of pressure from the usual gang of idiots to pardon that scumbag. He mocked one of his victims by imitating his last gasps for breath.
I'm sure you heard that Shindy's family publicly denounced her. Drudge had it on his site. Her husband divorced her. Shindy's mother had a stroke, and it was probably caused by Shehag's shameful behavior.
Now she's down to trolling the Communist Party for attention. I figured the MSM would drop her like a hot potato after she took on the hildabeast.
FOX FYI: I emailed John Gibson today. Let's see if he shows my email on Fox. If he does show it, I promise not to bash the Bushes for the rest of December.
