51. No, better than adequate. And she's not "handicapped".
Edited on Wed Mar-02-05 12:08 AM by mondo joe
From the 2nd District's first decision:

"Theresa has been blessed with loving parents and a loving husband. Many patients in this condition would have been abandoned by friends and family within the first year. Michael has continued to care for her and to visit her all these years. He has never divorced her. He has become a professional respiratory therapist and works in a nearby hospital. As a guardian, he has always attempted to provide optimum treatment for his wife. He has been a diligent watch guard of Theresa's care, never hesitating to annoy the nursing staff in order to assure that she receives the proper treatment."

And she's not handicapped - SHE's not there. Her cerebral cortex is GONE.
