She isn't BRAIN DEAD unless someone produces an MRI - AND clinical observations by several expert neurologists over a period of weeks.

I base this on the experts cited by the National Review article that is online right now from the priest who has followed this case.

The fact that someone (Dr. Howard, I believe, a pro-death travel-round-the-country expert for hire) can examine her for 45 minutes, pronounce her brain dead (i.e., PVS), and be viewed as an expert by J. Greer is truly frightening.

"Terri's situation has arguably received more judicial attention, more medical attention, more executive attention, and more "due process," than any other guardianship case in history. Terri's family has had the benefit of excellent legal representation as well as the Governor's own top-notch attorneys, all of whom have scoured the case for ways to assist the effort to keep Terri's feeding tube in place."

There have been no less than 5 doctors including two selected by the parents as well as some 8 radiologists and physical therapist who have looked at her. She has had a CT-Scan, recommended for use upon those thought to be in a PVS. http://abstractappeal.com/schiavo/infopage.html#timeline

You are either very ignorant to make such a statement or have your own agenda me thinks.
