Who sells 'backs' nowadays, anyway?!

The woman's family gave a history of bitter quarrelling in that marriage, and infidelity by him. He never contradicted those accounts. His handling of the situation gave the impression he sought to kill her for her money and the freedom to marry Jodi Centonze.

The conduct and ideology of the Hemlock Society, who urge suicide on everyone, didn't help.

I believe that the originating event was a massive heart attack that resulted in loss of oxygen to the brain. Had they not been able to get her heart to start beating again, it would not have even been an issue. The fact that the beating of the heart is controlled by the autonomic nervous system, which does not equate to cognitive functioning, is the problem. Her body "lived" but her brain had no function.

As to his demeanor to the situation after it occurred, what does that have to do with anything? While I couldn't imagine getting that frustrated myself to utter such about a loved one, I can empathize with someone who was.

Even when I leave out words?? Grr

No problem! I enjoy reading your comments and viewing your posts. Take Care Mark

I don't quarrel with your particular decisions. I assume you have mutual durable powers of attorney, "living wills," Advance Medical Directives, and so on. If you don't, you're on the same page, so you should find that easy to work out.

But Michael Schiavo had a reputation for being abusive. The Schindler family never trusted him.

Play the percentages, as any detective will tell you.

Temlakos... after some years of being 'married' to a ... pardon the expression... vegetable, even a rather normal human might crave some higher level of companionship.

Even my wonderful wife and I are in agreement on 'when to pull the plug' on each other, and Terry's condition would have met the tests long before the media let go of her. Some miracles, so to speak, don't happen no matter HOW many people wait or pray for 'em...

In my Never-so-humble Opinion.

LOL...I think he's going to kick ME any minute.

Wow sorry. I have a very reason to remember your name too. Duh.

Bah

It depends on where he kicked him.

Rip Van Winkle... only some of his nightmares weren't... something to consider...

Thanks! The name is Mark Shruggy:) Its not uncommon for people to say Mike though. You get a +1 for getting close and remembering me. Take care sweetie.

That experience must have been pure hell. A friend of mine had something like this happen at a time when they used electo-shock therapy for depression. The lady was motionless effectively paralyzed buy could feel all the electricity going through her body. I was reminded that this was something the Nazi's would have loved.

It would concurrently turn what brain they had into further mush and further radicalize them to violence... I know that's what having to watch that obscene purple sheeple-generator did to our kids...

How do you think she got into that state?

Because he strangled her.

And the nursing staff heard him to complain, "When is she gonna die? When is that [female dog] gonna die?"

I had the impression no one even checked that. I believe a trial of hyperbaric oxygen would have been appropriate.

I also believe Michael Schiavo put her in that state to begin with.

I remind you the nursing staff often heard him to complain, "When is that [female dog] gonna die?"

And that he had a mistress--Judi Centonze--waiting to step up to the judge with him the minute he had a death certificate in hand.

Probably when you stop making stuff up and talking about it.

Team effort...
