Guess life is only sacred when politicians deem it so.
Where is the medical profession in all this Schiavo crap? Shouldn't the patients' doctors have the last say in whether this girl is braindead or not? Every parent who loves their child is gonna chose any form of life over death, but they ARE NOT THE GUARDIANS. When medical decisions are left to politicians we are truly screwed. And yes Virginia, we are truly screwed. Maybe if bush* would lift that stem-cell ban?????? naw

1. It's not true that ANY parent would try to keep their child in a zombie
like state - especially against her wishes.

2. Terri was a Bulimic
She had her stroke as a result of severe bulimia.

Eating disorders have a lot to do with parental control.

Myths about Terri

I was blown away by this information, this is why her mother is so frantic. She always controlled her "little girl"

4. "Where is the medical profession in all this Schiavo crap?"
I imagine they're terrified to speak out.
