Montana,
Please read some of the history of the case. I know that you mean well and are trying to defend someone's life, but to claim that she hasn't had the therapy she needed is preposterous.
Years were spent in intensive therapy and rehabilitation between 1990 and 1994. There was zero effect.
Dead people in fact do open their eyes, as well as move, all the time. Many muscles continue to function, as well as reflexes, after death has occurred. My cousin is a mortician, and he's told me about everything from legs moving to eyes opening to arms jerking.
Quote:That is simply not true Cycloptichorn! She has brain activity, which means she is not brain dead.
This is false. Have you seen the scans of her brain? The fact that the majority of her frontal lobe now consists of CSF, or Cereberal Spinal Fluid? And the rest of the brain (say, 30%) is severely atrophied.
Not trying to dump on ya, Montana, but you've been duped if you believe that years of rehab weren't attempted, or that Terri has any chance of recovering from having a non-existent brain. Don't be fooled by the segments shown on TV; they are carefully chosen out of hours of film where she doesn't do anything of note.
