Re: The case of Terri Schiavo

keeping her heart pumping in the sense that they are pumping Ensure into her stomach 4 times a day, because she has no swallow-reflex and cannot eat in a normal manner.

I wonder if the good intentioned people outside her hotspice understand that if they did bring her a glass of water and pour it in her mouth, that she would drown?

MRIs of her brain show that most of it, except the cerebal cortex, are completely gone, and have been replaced by spinal fluid. There is nothing there that can recover. Brain cells do not grow back.

All the doctors that have examined her and her tests came to the same conclusion, there is nobody in there, and she will never improve.
