"Is that the only issue with this guy?"

He thinks Terri's not a cabbage ... *that's* the issue.

Allowing Terri to have water (by any means) would prolong the agony.

The husband removed the feeding tube, thru which went both food and water. He was within his rights to have the tube removed.

So sad... tragic....

You know what... it took the Docs and the labs about two days at Mayo Clinic and St. Luke's Hopital in Jacksonville to decide that my wife could be treated for her cancer and have a fighting chance.

Ten minutes in nothing in medical exams.

Read the DOH report, thanks for posting it. It's a copy of a lawsuit brought by a patient. It appears that the patient lost the lawsuit but you have to read the whole thing to find that out. It also states (the court) that a substantial number of the doctor's patients have reported relief from his treatments. He's an 'alternative medicine' doctor, according to the documents,

Maybe the guy is a nut, but he did spend a lot of time with Terri Schiavo and his eyewitness is helpful unless we want to call him a liar or a fruitcake.

He's a doctor... a discredited one


You just can't handle it that this doctor has been thorough and produced a report that gives good info.

Why doesn't that make you happy? What's the problem?

He has not been discredited - just a wish of yours and you will dig up anything to prove a point. Has anyone done that to you?

Had you actually read the posted document, you would have noted that doctors at Morton Plant Hospital have said Terri swallows on her own, swallowing her output of saliva.

Any new info you can present will be welcomed. And I have no reason to doubt what you say.

There are other revealing data in the document but we don't expect you to read them since your stilt appears to be the same as Greer, et al of the 'Execute this useless eater' crowd. Your too smartaleck for your own good, brilliant by half. It is easy to scoff and ridicule fellow Freepers for your amusement, but damn difficult to do the homework in order to see the clear conflicts of interest that have denied Terri real due process of law.

Ah yes, find someone who's been in Terri's corner for the entire distance, who has publicly appeared on television arguing that what's been done to her is unbelievably barbaric, but who happens to note the truth regarding Hammesfahr, and instantly light into them and call them all kinds of insulting names.

Your lack of any real desire for truth is exceeded only by your arrogance. Go ahead, flame away, as you've already done in response to the simple truth. I give you the last word. Say whatever you like. I won't be responding, as I frankly have no time to converse with a idiot.

Uh, please explain how someone who is 'PVS' is able to blink rapidly for a period then stop; then squeeze hands, then stop; then grimace, then smile, then not - PERIOD - whether or not it was at the 'appropriate' times ...

Random movement.

Aghast that getting less than 100% meant such voluntary actions would have to be called 'reflexes' when there is no way in hell they could be.

How do you know? Examined her yourself, have you?

Colleen --

He might very well be as true as God... but his credibility is lacking. This is a real problem in court. Terri's parents deserved better.

Thank you for these comments. Dr Cheshire's comments - it's a pity he couldnt be a witness in the 2000 trial itself, he might have made Judge Greer see the light.

IF YOU KNOW OF ANY 16 YEAR OLD WHO RESPONDS TO PARENTAL COMMANDS 100%, I'D SAY THAT IS AN UNUSUAL CASE!

Hah! Good point :P.

Absolutely.

It sounded like MS was a little impatient - "tapping his foot for 5 minutes." Terri ignored that sound.

He wasn't in control of the situation - couldn't handle it.

"He has not been discredited - just a wish of yours and you will dig up anything to prove a point. Has anyone done that to you?"

Part of what we do on FR is to dig into evidence and look for truth. I'm sorry if this (promising) piece now has credibility issues. Now you know what the Dems / Left felt like when we trashed the 60 Minutes docs.

If you don't like examination of the posts here (are simply looking for "amens") then perhaps FR isn't your place.

I can't remember a time that I have been so unhappy, so down!
Why couldn't this beast just leave her with her parents. I would, they love her so much, he doesn't! When this is over what shall we do?

I have a question that I certainly don't mean any disrespect to the Schindlers but I find it strange that in all that I have read I have never seen that they charge MS with abuse. I have never even heard them make the acquisition. It almost appears as if MS has something on them.

They were friendly through the malpractice suit. I gleaned from Sean Hannity tonight that the Schindlers were unaware of the broken bones etc until years later. What about the questions at the time with the emergency people? Could Schindlers have taken part in some questionable testimony during the malpractice trial in an effort to see to it that the money was there to care for their daughter and could MS be holding that testimony or something similar over them? Also, I have yet to hear The Schindlers comment on the desire for autopsy. They want her to have a Catholic burial and be buried in Florida.

For the record. I think this is legalized murder. Accidents happen and we don't get to choose, this woman was not terminal, there was nothing in writing and whether Michael likes it or not I believe his choice is divorce or stick by her--PERIOD. I am just astounded this is really happening. Never dreamed a spouse had the authority to take the life of a spouse and non-terminal at that. This has been an eye-opener!

"That's why the Schiavo Brothers did everthing they could to discredit Hammesfahr when they were on talk radio."

The really sick thing is, some people buy their B.S.

"Allowing Terri to have water (by any means) would prolong the agony. "

Exactly what *pain* can a PVS person be in?

What pain and agony is Terri in and how can that possible be consistent with the PVS (mis)diagnosis?

And btw, dont you get how absurd you sound saying that giving someone water is wrong?
I am the guardian of my son, am I allowed to let him die from starvation if he breaks his neck and is unable to feed himself? Wouldnt that be abuse? How is it different here?
