An argument is made that all the evidence was destroyed when Terri's body was cremated.  Nothing could be further from the truth.  The video and audio tapes, notes, pictures, and specimen samples still exist.  The case itself is still open according to Thogmartin.  As long as someone can show justification for an independent review, I'm sure a judge would allow it.--Lakota 22:57, 11 August 2007 (EDT)

: You're "sure a judge would allow it"???  You must be joking.  A judge would not even allow a comprehensive independent evaluation while Terri was alive, and no independent review was allowed during or after the autopsy.  Godspeed.--[[User:Aschlafly|Aschlafly]] 22:59, 11 August 2007 (EDT)

Unsigned Comments Will Be Deleted!

I Believe the inclusion of Angel Raisch, drug abuser, on this list of Schiavo-like individuals, is extremely inappropriate. Terri was a bulimic, and possibly the victim of domestic abuse, not a law-flouting hippie pursuing selfish ends. DunsScotus 14:42, 22 March 2007 (EDT)

Spoon, discuss on talk first before including. Raich's 'starvation' strains credulity given the well-known affects of marijuana intake upon appetite. DunsScotus 15:10, 22 March 2007 (EDT)
I insist that Raich, as she is not in a vegetative state, is not in any way comparable to Terri. Angel Raich can eat, if she choses to. She simply prefers to revel in her sinfulness and fails to take responsibility for her food intake in a responsible, law-abiding, fashion. DunsScotus 15:10, 22 March 2007 (EDT)


Did anyone notice that the sources listed DIRECTLY contradict the opinions expressed in the article? Whomever is the author of the article should either find new sources or take out any subjective comments. Otherwise you render the viewpoints within as false. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by DrCody (talk)

Yes, this page certaintly requires sources that better support the statements made, and perhaps more information regarding the legal debate which took place.--Joe 16:18, 2 August 2007 (EDT)
I'll concede that the article shouldn't speak so authoritatively without more sources. We need good, medical sources here. DanH 18:57, 2 August 2007 (EDT)
  • I agree with Dan here. More citiations are the key, and especially links to outside sources! --şŷŝôρ-₮KṢρёаќǃ 19:52, 2 August 2007 (EDT)

"Many patients observed to be in a brain-damaged state like Terri's have surprisingly recovered". This quote is given with a source about a fireman who started speaking again after so long.

"There have been several other similar cases of brain recovery in the US.

Arkansas car accident victim Terry Wallis woke up two years ago after 19 years in a coma and began speaking to his family. And Tennessee police officer Gary Dockery, paralysed and mute after a shooting in 1988, started speaking again eight years later. He died of a blood clot on the lung in 1997. None of the victims was in a persistent vegetative state like Terri Schiavo, the brain-damaged woman who died last month after her feeding tube was removed." This quote is from the source posted here on Conservapedia. Notice that it contradicts the article. Mainly the last line of the quote. Terri was in a PERSISTENT VEGETATIVE STATE, these people listed in the article, were not. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Digitamer81 (talk)
