NYer - didn't Todd get banned? or was it just a time-out?

[Coleus]

Incredible. I always suspected that guy had something to do with her medical situation. >>>>

That sounds more plausible than the potassium shortage.

Maybe one of the doctors here a FR could explain something about her condition. The original diagnosis for her heart attack was a low potassium count. I can't understand how a healthy person with no kidney disease could get such a low K count and get a severe heart attack which must have been an arrhythmia; can this be?

[Coleus]

Thanks.

I have a thought. In the event that the tube is pulled, wouyld not a coroner have to get involved at that point? Wouldn't the coroner be in the position to discover if Terri's condition was the result of a crime? Wouldn't Terri's husband be potentially be charged with murder? That could mean pressure could be brought to bear against her husband not to pursue her death.

[Canticle_of_Deborah]

Yes, but apparently the husband or someone is well connected enough to have covered up the evidence for ten years. If she dies the coroner may not even do an autopsy. I believe the family can waive it. In terms of convicting the husband, it is better if Terri remains alive. If she dies he is home free.

[Canticle_of_Deborah]

I don't have much adult cardiac experience but that would be my guess. Potassium and other electrolyte imbalances cause irregular electrical activity in the heart. I've never heard that described as a heart attack per se. I had a nurse friend who went on the Atkins diet and her electrolytes, potassium particularly, became very depleted. Her doctors freaked.

Well, I hope she does remain alive. But I think the family could do something if she died. The family only can waive the autopsy if the authorities don't intervene. since this is a high-profile case, I have no doubt they can get an autopsy done.

[Canticle_of_Deborah]

I think the only family member who has any legal authority in this case is the husband.

[Slyfox]

When parents are suspected of being incompetent to the detriment of their
children they usually get a little visit from Child Protective Services.

[nickcarraway]

The District Attorney can definitely order an autopsy, even if the family doesn't want it.

[Coleus]

I'm on Atkins now; however, I take about 300 mg. potassium every day to counteract all the sodium I am consuming. My blood pressure dropped 40 points already!
