1- heard a thump and got up
2- got up for some reason and then heard a thump
3- was in the process of getting up and heard something

In deposition, Michael was asked about his mum.
Q. Your mother's name is Claire?
A. Clara.
Q. Is that with an "A".
A. Something like that.

SOMETHING LIKE THAT? It's your mother's name, for screaming in a bucket!!

Didn't know the year he got married. Didn't know how long he worked for his present employer. Didn't know how long he lived in Florida and on and on.

When he spoke of Terri's 'wish' to be starved and dehydrated, his statement was NOT:
"We were watching a movie called (title) and the star (name) was in a coma and Terri said "Now, I'm telling you, Michael. I don't want to be sustained on life support for any reason. You dig?"

What he said was:
"We would be watching some programs..." and "Terri said 'No tubes for me'."

Would be watching WHAT???? What the #$%& kind of statement is that? What tubes? Did she refer to a feeding tube specifically? Did she lay everything out for the guy? Was that really a matter of great importance to her? If so, howzcome nobody else on the bloody planet knows? Wouldn't you tell your mum and dad or, at least, your brother/best-friend if something like that crossed your mind and you felt it important?

THESE STATEMENTS are clear and convincing evidence? Why couldn't he, at very least, nail what 'programs' they 'would' be watching?

My head - she's a gonna asplode.

Is there anyone, outside of Judge Greer, who would look on such statements as 'clear' or 'convincing'?

Yes, I'm paraphrasing to a slight degree, but only a slight one. Read the documents and your head gonna asplode as well.
