Terri Schiavo's Husband: Jeb Bush 'Put Me Through Hell'

[ChrisL]

Yes he was. If he was still married to her and sleeping with someone else, THAT is cheating.

So if you are completely incapacitated and there is no hope of recovery, you want your husband to remain isolated and alone?

Like I said, he should have divorced her. If he had wanted to move on, divorcing her and leaving her care to someone else would have been the appropriate thing to do.

Can't get a 1.5 million dollar settlement that way though.

Yes, isn't funny how he supposed wanted to move on with his life but didn't bother to divorce her? Hmmm.

Prior to the settlement his testimony was always ..." I want to become a nurse and spend the rest of my life taking care of her, she is my life"....after... "She wants to die,she told me so".

Funny how fast that 1.5 million made him change his tune.

Greed is a terrible thing.

Exactly. They conveniently like to ignore the fact that mr abuser withheld therapy and medical treatment for years prior.

Because they wouldn't do any good. Her brain was essentially jelly. She had no higher brain functions or motor skills. All she had was the part of the brain that keeps the heart and lungs functioning.

Her brain atrophied due to lack of exercise . It got that way from years of abuse. The nursing home and Terri's parents fought for medical treatment and therapy for years. Michael withheld it.

I love how you never read any of the case files but love to pretend you how everything. You are a hoot.

Thanks, I always thought that was a major problem and now you Confrimed It.

If she didn't have a living will, then any testimony as to what SHE wanted is merely speculation.

Do you have one, most don't, and they aren't binding regardless. And here's the rule, the person you marry will get to make the call, nearly without exception. Now you know. If my wife lets me hang out on a machine I will haunt for eternity, and she knows it so it won't happen.

Irrelevant.

Not at all. It was always his call, and always should have been. When it was obvious that she had no way back that should have been the end of it, and the end of her even though she was already gone.

I disagree. It would harm no one to allow her parents to care for her at home instead of pulling her feeding tube and allowing her to starve to death.

The person it would have harmed would have been her, and her wishes. She was already gone. And the only reason we let people die that way is because Americans are too immature to do the humane thing that they can usually manage for a sick and dying animal, put it down.

She was still conscious. She was not comatose.

 

[PaintMyHouse]

She was still conscious.

No, she wasn't. She was a body without a mind, the brain was gone, as the autopsy showed. In truth she was dead before she hit the floor. It happens.

Why do you liberals insist on protecting thugs, like micheal brown and wife abusers , just answer the question why?

We don't, but we do have issues with the police just shooting unarmed black men, which they have a nasty habit of doing.

That autopsy was 12 years latter.. .

And that is the only document they ever read about Terri's condition obviously.

Yep, and that's what happens when the brain doesn't get fed for 12 years but it wouldn't have mattered if it was 12 days or 112 years, she was gone and had no path back.

 

[WorldWatcher]

The only other people who conveniently came up with that testimony only did so years later after he rec'd a 1,5 million dollar settlement.....and it was Michael, his brother and his sister in law. All had motive to lie.

You keep saying that, however M.S. got $300,000 not 1.5 million. The settlement was 2 million, the lawyers got about half. $750,000 was setup to pay medical bills, and M.S. received the remaining $300,000. The schism with the parents started shortly after that after refusing to give the parents a cut.

Like I said, he should have divorced her. If he had wanted to move on, divorcing her and leaving her care to someone else would have been the appropriate thing to do.

Can't get a 1.5 million dollar settlement that way though.

The malpractice case was settled long before the 1998 request to allow Terri's body to not be maintained via artificial means.

The bodies continued existence at that point had nothing to do with a case that had already been settled.

So? Do you advocate killing mentally retarded people too?

 

[ChrisL]

The bottom line here is it would have harmed nobody to let her parents take her home to die surrounded by the people who loved her the most, considering that, in her condition, she probably wouldn't live a very long life anyways.

What kind of cruel person would deny the family that?

As newborns, like Downs kids? Yep. Test and abort. We aren't spending the time and money needed on the healthy kids yet so we have no time or money for the sick ones. Life is cruel, that can't be helped.

For one thing it wasn't their call. And if that happened to my wife, not a chance in hell would I go against her wishes. I'd pull the plug myself if I had to.

Down's syndrome? Are you kidding me? A LOT of Down's people live very fulfilling lives. They have jobs, they have friends, and they have lives.

It doesn't matter how sweet they can be, or the fact that they can manage to have, often enough, some kind of life here, they should never have been born. No Trisomes should be. It's why 90% of Downs kids are aborted. It should be 100% but there you go, immature Americans.

 

[JoeB131]

Neurologist testified during her trial that she had neck injuries caused by strangulation. It's documented.

Do you have a link to that? Because it kind of sounds like you are making shit up now.

It's in the deposition. Look it up. It ain't that hard.

So again, you don't have a link and you are making shit up, then?
