Â Really, everyone connected with the case - save MAYBE the judge that made the original ruling years ago - needs to be slapped upside the head with a large trout. The only person involved who maintained anything even remotely resembling dignity throughout the process was Terry Schiavo herself...and for all practical purposes she was !@#$ing dead!!!!

No, it's not about one's emotions. I'm going to take a shot and guess that you have never met the "reality" of death. I've caused it, dealt it, and also from the other side seen people I was responsible for die. When I thought it was all over, and I was away from it, I got a rude awakening through sudden massive totally unexpected heart failure.  Reality? You just have never experienced love. There's more to that than just "emotions". Truly loving someone becomes a way of life. Part of you understands the "reality" of death, but the majority of you becomes a part of someone else, and they with you. When that gets taken away, it's very disrupting, in practical terms as well as emotional. It's different than losing a parent. I've even had people try to compare it to losing their cat. What sad, sad people.  No, you don't understand a single thing about the reality of death. You will, but not yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would have agreed with you there if you had said "never fully experienced love". That being said, I'm in the process of experiencing it. I'm planning on marrying the girl I'm currently with. There is no doubt in my mind that she's the one.  I've had a few family members die, but no one as close as a wife.  That being said, I agree that I can't put myself into someone else's shoes and that I am nieve about it and death. But, you are who your past experiences say you are, and I will be the sum of those experiences until that changes. Which, I hope, isn't for a long time.

Lose someone close to you, and see how you feel about their autopsy results posted on the internet, for what amounts to be your entertainment. First of all, sorry for your loss. Second of all, get off your high horse: you're not the only one who has lost someone close to you, and no I don't mean a pet. Third of all, yes I DO care and no it's not for "entertainment" purposes, since I want to know whether the autopsy showed that she was brain damaged to the point of being a "vegetable" and was thus properly allowed to die. Last of all, I wouldn't want my loved one's autopsy results posted on the internet, but I also wouldn't selfishly keep them alive and in the process cause their picture in a vegetative state to be plastered all over the media.

Sorry GoBiB but there was NOTHING private about this case, and thus the results of the autopsy shouldn't be either. And it DOES give me some value because I believed she was in a PVS and I'm hoping the autopsy showed that, so that if I'm in a similar situation with a loved one, I can use what I've learned from TS' case and make a rational and not emotional/selfish decision on my loved one's part. About the ONLY good that came out of this was the awareness for a need for a living will, so that people's wishes are known to all who need to know, not dragged obscenely into public for all to see.

(living will) I suggest them to anyone, so that all of this can be avoided. I also strongly suggest that couples, or whatever relationships are pertinent pre-make their funeral arrangements together. Right when someone dies unexpectedly is not the best time to be figuring that out.  The question I still have though, is what two cases are the same? What may have been true is TS's case is not necessarily true in another. The living will should preclude most of that, but think - another angle would be basing TOO much opinion on this case. Wouldn't it be more useful to research through medical/pathology/etc literature several cases? And use a collection of them to form an idea? What if somehow an autopsy showed that she was "marginally aware" on some level? Where would that put your thoughts, when maybe 100 other similar cases might have a totally different result?  Once again, were I ever in that shape AND aware...I can think of no greater hell on earth than someone allowing me to live. but once again, that's me.

All the scans and most of the interviews with TS said she was in a PVS. The autopsy was basically supposed to say that, yes, her cerebral cortex had shrivelled to almost nothing, meaning she had no "higher functions" and was basically in a PVS. They could have simply weighed her brain, compared it to the average weight of the brain of a woman her size, and made the determination that the lost weight was cerebral cortex and determined the percent of atrophy, or something close to that. And yes no 2 cases are alike, but while looking into her case, I also read about other cases, and as I said, think I can make a rational versus an emotional decision should the need arise. Once again, were I ever in that shape AND aware...I can think of no greater hell on earth than someone allowing me to live. but once again, that's me. Same here. And FWIW, I think TS really would have wanted to die and would have been horrified at seeing her face in her state plastered all over newspapers and TV.

todd Posted June 15, 2005 Share Posted June 15, 2005 Story on schiavo  In short, her husband was right. The parents, as most rational folks suspected, are truly out of their gourds. The woman had no chance for survival, she was blind, could not be rehabilitated, and had the mental capability of a earthworm. Her brain was 1/2 the size of a normal brain, and could not be repaired or rehabilitated due to the severe lack of neurons.  This settles it. She was dead even before she was officially dead. Let's move on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wacka Posted June 15, 2005 Share Posted June 15, 2005 Kind of hard to determine if she could have swallowed when she is dead. Don't you think her brain shrunk somewhat when she was starved and dehydrated to death? Why didn't her husband let them do the tests on her? If they showed she was brain dead, then let her die. He wouldn't even let them run the tests. He sure didn't care for her. He started shacking up shortly after she fell ill. Why didn't he divorce her?

PastaJoe Posted June 17, 2005 Share Posted June 17, 2005 Jeb Bush just won't let it go. Michael Shiavo was off in his recollection over an 11 year period, and Bush thinks that's reason to investigate. Â TALLAHASSEE, Florida (AP) -- Gov. Jeb Bush asked a prosecutor Friday to investigate why Terri Schiavo collapsed 15 years ago, calling into question how long it took her husband to call 911 after he found her. Â In a letter faxed to Pinellas-Pasco County State Attorney Bernie McCabe, Bush said Michael Schiavo testified in a 1992 medical malpractice trial that he found his wife collapsed at 5 a.m., and he said in a 2003 television interview that he found her about 4:30 a.m. He called 911 at 5:40 a.m. Â "Between 40 and 70 minutes elapsed before the call was made, and I am aware of no explanation for the delay," Bush wrote. "In light of this new information, I urge you to take a fresh look at this case without any preconceptions as to the outcome." Â Michael Schiavo's attorney, George Felos, did not immediately return a telephone call seeking comment Friday from The Associated Press. In comments in The Miami Herald, he said Terri Schiavo would not have survived if her husband had not immediately called 911. Â "It's absolutely preposterous," Felos said. "If he had waited 70 minutes she would have been dead." Â http://www.cnn.com/2005/LAW/06/17/schiavo....r.ap/index.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
