Why would you hope Terri wasn’t in as dire a situation as her doctors believe? Do you hope she had a painful death? How petty is it to wish agony on someone so you can have bragging rights? No one may ever read this due to the lateness of my response, but Terri’s situation is barely comparable to Kate Adamson’s. Although Adamson truly had an amazing recovery, the fundamental difference of the two situations is the presense of a cerebral cortex. This is the portion of our brain which allows for cognative thought, reason, logic, comlex emotions and many other of the factors which make us human. Terri does not have a cortex, which makes recovery impossible. It is impossible to regenerate nerve cells on a level necessary to recreate the cerebral cortex. Although it appears that Terri is responding to her family in some of the movies shown on tv, this is merely a reflexive response, triggered by a visual stimulus, similar to how a plant turns towards a light source. Although it is a tragic situation, it would be impossible for her to recover. Please e-mail me, as I would be interested to see your viewpoint on the issue.

I really hope that the autopsy comes back and shows that the part of Terri’s cerebral cortex was not as damaged as all the experts thought, proving that rehabiliatation would have been helpful. Wishful thinking perhaps but many questions will come about and perhaps an investigation……

You can’t draw a parallel between Kate Adamson and Terri Schiavo. They had two entirely different issues. Terri had no brain matter. Kate did. Two entirely different things. While I can sympathize with Ms. Adamson, and her experience will surely make us all more aware of brain injury, you need to look BEYOND her. Is there anyone who had Terri’s condition who got any better? No. The facts would show that most people in persistive vegetative states DON’T.

MZ adds: Jennifer, Thank you for your insight, however I have to pick apart this post (nice email address, by the way).

“Terri had no brain matter.” - Evidence please?

“Is there anyone in her condition who got any better? No.” - immediately contradicted by “most people in a persistent vegitative state don’t.” So some do? I’m confused.

A bit of research would help greatly here. Terri’s brain scans were compared to a healthy young woman on TV, but no one seems to be arguing that she was healthy. Have you compared them to those of an 85 year old woman? That might be educational. If I have a condition that I will never recover from, but I am able to respond rudimentarily - as my infant baby is - I would hope that you would not starve me to death simply because I am an inconvenience to the world.

Oh, and you are also trusting completely in the “Terri was PSV” argument which has been hotly disputed.

I can not still get over the fact that the media has not exposed her. Yes she had a stroke but she was communicating in the ICU unit and plans were made from there for her to be sent for aggressive rehab treatment. She was never going to be discontinued from life support. She had a “locked in” state not a vegetative state. Her tube feedings were held because her intestines slowed down. She was never being starved to death as she says on TV.

Kate Adamson’s feeding was stopped not to hasten her death, but because she had a life-threatening bowel obstruction for which she later had surgery.

During the eigth days without food, she was given IV fluids.

What an utterly horrible condition to be in. We should be exhausting all means to rehab her instead of trying to kill her. And what of her husband! Geeze she just had the cards stacked against here. It is very evident that after Terri spent two years in her “broken” state of consciousness that here husband was ready to “dispose” of her. He had grown tired of his vows of “for better or worse” and was plotting to engage the “untill death do us part” clause of the contract.
