Now, have they found anymore panties in Aruba? Or Neverland?

7. wasn't this info released before?
i recall this info discussed right after her death, results completely exonerating her husband and then the news falling off the news cycle since it didn't point any fingers.

did i just imagine it?

21. Because the tests that were needed to be done take time.
That's why. One of the tests they had to do to determine brain function includes solidifying the brain liquid and slicing it to study. Takes time. This is good for "our" side. No brain function no abuse.

26. i understand that
but the earlier report, or initial results, were released. I'm not going looking for it, just figured someone else may have remembered it. It implied then that her husband was not responsible, and that news just went away.

So, now it's the news again. . . :shrug:

31. I know.........
I want to hear about "real" news too. Guess they had to pull something, Jackson Trail is over. I don't remember it being released earlier, but to be honest I haven't been paying any attention for awhile. I live in Florida, and this has been a big issue for like 5 years, I've had enough already.

It was in the NYTimes and a Florida child agency group did an autospy and reported there were no signs of abuse on the body. :shrug:

8. Cult of life will reject science again
It's sad, because when they discuss how bad her brain damage was, Cult of Lifers will just reject this like they do all science.

14. Spot on!
Even if the scientific results showed a brain the size of a kidney stone, they'ld still be saying it was life that should be prolonged. The quality of that life isn't important...that's in God's hands.

12. I'm Liking It...
No Trauma...she wasn't beating...

Couldn't eat or swallow. There goes all that crap

They're just verifying what anyone whose dealt with a tube-fed and people in these type of conditions experience.

But, of course, the corporate media won't have any of this...the call is going out to all the right wing nuts as we type.

18. No ammount of therapy
She could not have been rehabbed. Her vision centers were dead. She could not see. So basically what everyone except the Cult of Life always knew.

27. Welcome To DU
I went through having to execute DNRs on my parents and the feeding tube on my mother. I saw many families who not only had to make the same tough decisions, but how agonizing this Schaivo circus was...making them, and me, relive those tough decisions made in ending a loved one's life.

This is just another verfication and vindication for a lot of us around here who viewed this case with realistic, hard-cold reality. These doctors are doing a great job in explaining how fragile the brain is and how Terri was all but DOA from the day she went into her coma.

Now, hopefully all of us can move on. Shame on those who attempted to exploit this whole sad episode.

Again...Welcome to DU!

28. But I thought they said she could "see" her
mother and her family?

I thought that she was trying to tell her mother that she was not brain dead and that Jesus saved her from her awful husband?

Did I miss something?

33. Calling Michael Schaivo's Lawyer...NOW!!! SUE!!!
This documents that Mr. Schaivo never did any of the allegations these oxygen thieves claimed he did...and defamed his character. Sorry, he wasn't a public figure as he was dragged into the spotlight...didn't put his name forward. His life was threatened and his name was dragged through the mud for several weeks...and it's all now being proved that they were baseless, mean lies.

Even worse...these lies were meant to exploit his and his wife's situation for personal gains of others. Hopefully Mr. Schaivo's lawyer has been taking names and it's time to pull out the list and bring a little libel whoop-ass on some of these scum:

Randall Terry, Shawn Hannity, Michael Savage, Matt Drudge...and add to the list if you care. These people destroyed this man's life and now there's proof he was defamed. This is what civil suits are all about. It'd even be nicer if it could be proven there was a conspiracy between several or all of these characters...then we can get into some racketeering laws.

Her body has been turned to ashes hasn't it? Remember the whole funeral the parents and siblings had? The brother proclaimed that what happened with Schavio was like 9/11 and she deserved a purple heart. :mad:
