As it stands there are FAR more important uses for those resources. The money spent on this lost cause could save the lives of hundreds or thousands of children in the Third World for one who die of entirely curable diseases. It could also do far more good at home for those without resources suffering from organ failures, cancers, and other problems.

It was in response to the above. "Supposed" concern for everyone but Terri. Hypocrisy.

Thanks, Theodore.

It would have cost very little money for the Schindler to have cared for their daughter in their own home. People who have no personal knowledge of feeding tubes do not know anything about feeding tubes at all, as far as I can tell. The devices are VERY SIMPLE and inexpensive when handled in a home setting. The Schindlers probably could have fed Terri soft foods and used the tube for a supplement. Yes, I know Terri's "doctors" said she would be unable to swallow, but she was not allowed anything soft.
