Ally, first of all - sorry about the retarded remark. That was childish.
My point is I don't think people are parading around hospitals telling doctors to pull the plug on sick people.
Show me one hospital, or even better a legitimate political forum (NOT SOME RADIO TALK SHOW OR MESSAGE BOARD), where there are people lining up to get rid of the "dead weight". It's not happening. It's all in your head.
No one is saying kill the termanilly ill. No one is saying pull the plug on people in vegative states. People who belive this is going on are over reacting and irrational. This is Flintstones Chewables for Kids.
What we are saying is let people live/die the way they want to live/die.
Terry's husband - her legal guardian - told him she didn't want to live like that. All he was trying to do is fullfil her wish. Why would he go to all of this trouble if he just wanted to get rid of her? Why would he turn down 10 million dollars to walk away from it - if he didn't believe he was doing the right thing? Do you honestly think he asked for all of this?
The moral of the story is get a living will. That is the only good thing that came out of this tragic story.
She wasn't on life support. She could breathe all on her own. She was being fed, that was it. How many people who "died" of heart attacks do you know that stay alive 15 years after?
You have people running around in Terry threads in non posting what I said. I don't have enough time to run around the interweb to various political message boards to see what the consensus is. Maybe you do; All I can tell you what I see here and what I hear in my daily travels.
Why didn't he accept the money? Look out in the news for his wedding. That's why. And no, that's not the media making him to be an ass. He has this chick with a ring on her finger and kids. What I want to know is why didn't he just sign guardianship over ot her parents, they sign divorce papers, he can go on with his life?
I deffy believe there is more to this than has been told.Roth Army MilitiaComment

It will be interesting if in fact a full-blown autopsy is done on Terri, or just a superficial white wash job, mostly centered on assessing her brain function.
At least Jeb Bush is the ultimate person over the coroner’s performing the autopsy, not that legally blind, POS Probate Judge Greer. Maybe we can finally get to the truths in this whole mess, after seven years of mud slinging.
I like how POS Michael Schiavo gave permission for the autopsy for PR purposes. The State didn’t need his permission to perform a full autopsy, by law, and he knew it.
Michael Schiavo threw the gauntlet down, let’s see if the State of Florida can finally do something right in this nightmare.Comment

Back to the Pope thing though.... there's been Italian popes, and a Polish pope. Yet one of the most Catholic countries on earth has gotten short changed.
It's time for an Irish Pope...

I think the cat scan pretty much confirmed that one.Last edited by Nickdfresh; 04-01-2005, 12:59 AM.Comment

What do they use in a feeding tube to feed people?
Is it just vitamin suppliments or actual food liquified?
My wife did great on her Berium Swallow Test and pretty much won't be seeing one all that soon, but it is a definate issue that will be monitored closely.
She chokes a hell of a lot even when drinking. the fluid keeps entering the airway and there is some difficulty chewing food.
She sometimes swallows before she wants to and her body has become way too frail to do a hymlic on without breaking some ribs.
I am not quite sure exactly what i have to look forward to.Comment

Man, I can see the April Fools jokes now.
"The Pope died."
"HAHAHA April Fools."
"No, for real. Turn on the TV."
"Stop playing."
"Do I look like I'm playing?"
"Oh my..."
"Dude! Got you..."
"Damn you."

No, this played out exactly as they knew it would. As Warham says, this is only the beginning. We're being sucker-punched even as we sit here.Comment
