I'm not a doctor , but there are far more sophisticated tests than EEGs these days. Two that come to mind are PET scans (positron-emission tomography) and MRIs (magnetic resonance imaging). Both are pretty specific in what they can show, and IMHO, are the better tools to show brain activity and where it's located. I'd like to see Terri get some of these tests performed, preferably while they are attempting to stimulate her in various ways (hearing, smelling, tasting, visual, etc).

Thank you for the extra info. My point is that the media and for a while, Michael and his lawyer, claimed Terri was brain dead.

To me, that means no electrical activity in the brain. Even the simplest of tests, (an EEG) would show whether this is the case or not, and answer the question.

Apparently, the Judge, Michael, and George Felos want to trust George's psyhic and spiritual enfoldment abilities more than any stupid old medical tests.
