WHO IS THE REAL MICHAEL SCHIAVO?

Laura Ingraham

During Michael Schiavo's 1992 malpractice lawsuit filed in state court in Florida, he did not provide specific details of what he now claims was Terri's stated desire not to live if in a severely brain damaged state. Remember, Michael is the one who first agreed to the feeding tube's insertion all those years ago. Why would he have agreed to that if indeed that was contrary to Terri's wishes?

Loren Gunter of the Edmonton Journal reminds us of Michael's statement to the court:

<<<

"Michael Schiavo admits Terri only ever made 'casual statements' about wanting to die rather than living vegetative. Death being irreversible, casual statements should not be enough to permit the deliberate ending of a victim's life. Tellingly, when he was seeking millions in a malpractice suit in 1992, Schiavo told the court he had taken up nursing 'to learn more how to take care of Terri ... I believe in the vows I took with my wife, through sickness, in health, for richer or poor. I married my wife because I love her and I want to spend the rest of my life with her. I'm going to do that.' He made no mention, then, about her alleged desire to die. Perhaps that is because she never proclaimed such a desire or perhaps because admitting he wanted Terri to die would have jeopardized Michael's claim for millions and millions to pay for her care for the rest of her life."
