It's plain and extremely apparent that Terry could have and should have been receiving rehabilitative therapy but it's been denied by her derelict husband who has abandoned, abused and is not starving her to death.

Terry hold on. Be strong. My prayers are with you.

Interestingly, I have seen this pattern of mixed brain (cerebral) and spinal cord findings in a patient once before, a patient who was asphyxiated.

Things that make you go "Hmmm..."

Hmmm... is right. That's exactly the statement that jumped out at me.

"I was asked to examine Terri Schiavo per the request of the Second District Court of Appeal"

I wonder...did the Second District Court of Appeal just ignore this, or what? This is an astounding report!

I heard this guy on Hannity today. Found him very interesting. I also wonder why this hasn't come out due to the fact the whole basis of starving her to death is that she is a vegetable. THanks so much for the post.

"She can feel pain.

On this last point, it is interesting to observe that the records from Hospice show frequent medication administered for pain by staff."

The cause of Terri's brain damage is highly suspicious. Even the good neuro specialist findings seem to suggest this.

I wonder what Judge Greer has received in all of this. He should be disbarred for covering up evidence and mishandling this case, and thrown in jail.

Renowned by whom, and for what? What departments does he chair? On what boards does he sit?

Has he had his work published in peer-reviewed journals?

The summation of all of the doctors is here.
http://abstractappeal.com/schiavo/trialctorder11-02.txt

"All of the five expert medical physicians (including Dr. Hammesfahr) have very impressive credentials and resumes."

Three of the five found a PVS.....very interesting readin AP if you can get through the med-speak. LOL

The court found....
Dr. Hammesfahr testified that he felt that he was able to get Terry Schiavo to reproduce repeatedly to his commands. However, by the court's count, he gave 105 commands to Terry Schiavo and, at his direction, Mrs. Schindler gave an additional 6 commands. Again, by the court's count, he asked her 61 questions and Mrs. Schindler, at his direction, asked her an additional 11 questions. The court saw few actions that could be considered responsive to either those commands or those questions.

The videographer focused on her hands when Dr. Hammesfahr was asking her to squeeze.

While Dr. Hammesfahr testified that she squeezed his finger on command, the video would not appear to support that and his reaction on the video likewise would not appear to support that testimony.

He received this and the opinions of 4 other doctors. The evidence is in the court records....hardly a cover up.

"Interestingly, I have seen this pattern of mixed brain (cerebral) and spinal cord findings in a patient once before, a patient who was asphyxiated."

This website below explains how different parts of the brain can be "dead" yet there are responses. Although it addresses strokes specifically, it holds equally true when the brain or parts of it are oxygen starved as in Terri's case.

The differences of reaction on the body from the two brain areas are kind of like, the lights are on, but nobody's home. (Kinda crude I know, but it's easiest understood?
I found another similar site that speaks more to the differences between comotose and PVS but it hasn't been up for two days.)

Perhaps not a cover-up. But certainly mishandling of the case, and he should be disbarred for refusing to look at other evidence that the Schlinders attempted to present, but he refused to look at it.

Ahhhhh the testimony is in the court record and the judge commented on it. How can you possibly think otherwise?
