10. Reality Check
19 Judges have reviewed this case. One would think one out of those 19 would have asked that a current MRI and CAT scan would be done...and that Michael Schaivo's laywers and doctors also had to present them in order to win the case.

There's a paper trail 15 years long on her condition and treatment and status. The fact is since around 1996 (when, to my knowledge the last detectable brain waves were noticed), CAT scans have shown fluid around the brain and no EEG waves have been detected. There's not much more to see or say or scan or monitor when it gets to this state...and all that is left to monitor are vital signs...heart rate and so on...things controlled by the lower brain.

Terri is not "locked up"...she's in a dark room...probably with a monitor on her and lying completely still...nothing to see. A part of me would love to see someone bring in a camera and show what a PVS person in that condition looks like...not a pretty sight. Let's see the bedsores and the balled up fists and soiled diapers. Hospice people have my greatest respect for the difficult jobs they do and how dedicated they are.

DeLay spewed so many lies, his mundacy almost has to be admired. This goon flat out lied about her current state...she can't or won't walk, she can't or won't eat, she can't or won't talk...but not in DeLay's world of self serving agendas. She's a perfect pawn and us "libruls" are killing her.
